On the topic of outlining, there is a tiny sliver of space taken up in your left margin to show the outlining. This video shows you how to turn that on or off. Personally I don’t see a reason to turn it off – BUT – I’m sure there is one. LIke maybe certain editor…
The best part of my day over the last few months has been 15-20 minutes somewhere between 5am and 6:30am each morning. My wake up time depends on when baby Courtney decides to start rolling around in her crib. She used to cry when she woke up to get our attention; because she knows that…
Somewhere along the path of setting up my blog using GraffitiCMS, I found that you can enable gravatars in the comments. The sample code I picked up looked like this. $macros.gravatar($comment.Email, $comment.Username, $comment.IPAddress, "%{size =’60’}") and it was working great for me until today.

Most Silverlight examples are about the User Interface. XAML here, and video there, pretty this, and shaded that. But this post today on SilverlightShow.net is different. They use the isolated storage of silverlight to act as a Client-Side cache for ASP.NET drop down lists. A great blog post, that is very well planned and executed….
