Hodgepodge of some (hopefully) useful .NET links and sites

Was doing some research over the weekend and gathed together some links on patterns and practices and other stuff. Hope you guys find these useful.
 
Good site with all kinds of patterns around user interface (both web and other). Lots of good ideas here.
 
I was going through some options of providing online help in web apps and came across this. It's a study done on different techniques applied to providing online help for web application users. Some good ideas and information here on what worked and what didn't.
 
This may seem silly but tables have TH tags for a reason and web readers (the type blind folks use to read webpages for them) rely on it. One of my biggest beef is the fact that the ASP.NET DataGrid doesn't spit out HTML code that's compliant with these readers. This KB article talks about resolving the problem via a hotfix that went out sometime ago. Just information to watch out for and contains a good link to Watchfire, a website that can check your page for accessibility compliance.
 
Sample Applications
Microsoft (and others) have gone to some extents to put together sample applications, reference architecture apps, and other resources to learn from. Some good (some not so good) stuff here if you haven't already seen any of these. That make for great reference when you're looking at how to implement some ideas.
