Matthias Shapiro will show you how to make mask animations (also known as clipping path animations) in Silverlight without a line of code. You think that mask animations are difficult to achieve? Read this post and you’ll find that you’ve been wrong.

John Stockton has s a post about Silverlight on CodePlex. What we know so far is that CodePlex has the ability to host Silverlight projects. The new thing is that now there is also support for displaying Silverlight applications in your project wiki. Isn’t that great?!

Mike Snow has a tip on how to implement double click. Silverlight currently has full mouse support for single click. However, double click is a another story. In this tip Mike will show you a technique which you can apply for an individual control or even for your entire page.

Terence Tsang has another great example for his Silverlight vs. Flash series. He will show you how to make accordion style image banner with some mouse interaction.  

While flying in a plane to open the first Silverlight Designer and Developer Network meet, Jordan Knight managed to create some snow floating around the SDDN logo. He says that the actual snow randomisation and animation code turned out to be about 10 lines. Check his sample and demo.

Jesse Liberty has published his report on CodeMesh 2009. Read more about the two sessions Jesse gave and about the experience he gained there.

Tim Heuer has dedicated a post to the updated Silverlight Streaming (SLS) plugin for Expression Encoder 2. Tim has tried this plugin and wants to share his impressions and thoughts about it.

Don't forget about Silverlight: Write and Win! contest where you can win some cool prizes and some cache. So you have about 2 weeks to post your great article and grab some of the prizes.
