Some time ago I’ve found an nice Silverlight 1.0 application which is now part of Silverlight.net Showcase. It is an open source configurable slide show application. The configuration is made by using XML or inline javacript (using JSON - JavaScript Object Notation).


See the live demo in Vertigo’s website. I had some issues while trying it on Firefox. The problem was Silverlight 1.1 September Alpha Refresh. So, in Internet Explorer it runs well with the 1.1 version, but to run it on Firefox you must have the stable 1.0 version.
This project is also hosted in Codeplex.
This is a riddle that I will never forget about…
“There are three light bulbs in a room, and three light switches outside the room. You are outside, and want to match up which switch goes with which light bulb. You can only travel into the room once, and cannot come back in again. You can do anything you want upon entering the room. How can you set the situation so that you will know which switch goes with which light bulb?”
The answer? Think about it! (or google it
)
Since I’ve created this blog I’ve been using a nice Wordpress plugin to allow a nice user experience while visiting this website with a mobile device. It is called Wordpress PDA Plugin and it’s installation is plug-and-play. Since this is a blog, and probably most of the readers just subscribe my RSS feed into some reader or aggregator, this plugin isn’t essential, but is still pretty nice.
These are some screenshots from my website mobile version.

As you can see, in the homepage it removes all the images and shows only part of the text, to optimize performance. By entering into a entry details you can read the whole content, including images.

I’m pretty sure that a lot of you have already seen or heard about these traditional Russian dolls. Now you can buy you geek version and even teach your children the units of measurement of information storage. Or you can just get a laugh at this crazy idea
Take a look in this online store.
I’ve found an interesting project of the Australian Centre for Visual Technologies. It allows to create 3D models from a video.

Select the points in several frames to catch all perspectives, then a 3D model is made using the video images as textures.
You can see the video and read more about this project in this website.

The .NET Framework library source code for debugging is now available. Follow the instructions to enable this kind of debugging in Visual Studio in Shawn Burke’s Blog.
