New eBook: JavaScript Patterns JumpStart Guide - Clean up your JavaScript Code
Over the years I’ve worked with various JavaScript patterns that can be used to clean up code and make it more re-usable and maintainable.

Silverlight 4 Code Demos from the Microsoft TechReady Workshop
I had the opportunity to give a 1-day workshop covering new Silverlight 4 features at the TechReady conference on Microsoft’s Redmond campus this weekend and wanted to post some of the sample code shown for the people who attended and anyone else who’s interested. The workshop was based on the free Silverlight LOB course Microsoft put together which has a lot of detailed lab exercises and videos available if you haven’t seen them. The demo code covers many of the topics detailed in the What’s New in Silverlight 4 whitepaper that John Papa put together.
