My new favorite blog is The Sartorialist. It’s full of photos of fashion on the streets of New York City. I highly recommend.

About a month ago, I finally broken down & bought a negative scanner. I’ve slowly been digitalizing about 80 pounds (literally) worth of scrapbook photos.
A few of my favorites that I’ve recently scanned…
traveling on horseback to monteverde, costa rica
my friend vidya’s dance recital
my friend archana in the hoh rainforest
dali, china
Something cool that I didn’t know “just worked” - linked resource dictionaries in Loose XAML!
In this sample:
- dictionary.xaml contains a ResourceDictionary
- page.xaml just links to dictionary.xaml.
See how it looks when you navigate to page.xaml. (And don’t forget to click on the fishies!)
Page.xaml:
<Page
xmlns=”http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation”
xmlns:x=”http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml”>
<Page.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary Source=”dictionary.xaml”/>
</Page.Resources>
<Button Style=”{StaticResource BigFish}”>
<Button Style=”{StaticResource SmallFish}”/>
</Button>
</Page>
BTW, you might have seen these styles before… They come from the WPF Feature Montage originally given by Fil Fortes at Mix06 & updated by Rob Relyea for TechEd
