I’m in the middle of trying to update my life to Silverlight RC0. Starting in a week or so, I’ll be trying to update my samples to RC0 and I’ll be creating new Silverlight samples in RC0.
I’m putting the color picker control on hold until after PDC so that everyone is on the same Silverlight page.
Thank you for your patience.
Over at Project Rosetta they have the post I’ve been waiting for: How to use mathematics to enhance user experiences.
They basically walk step by step through how we can use mathematics to create easing equations and pseudo-3D effects. They then use these principles to create the following application. Click and drag on a name to spin the interface.
Awesome.
I swear… I’ll get back to the tutorials any day now!
By in the meantime, I’m doing some form redesign and I wanted to praise to the heavesn Luke Wroblewski, whose many blog posts on form usability is some of the best, most practical stuff I’ve ever seen.
Stuff I’m reading and using right now:
UPDATE: It turns out that Luke was at MIX… a tragedy that I’m discovering this just now. You can see his panel “The Business Value of Design” or read more about it at his website.
I wanted to take a moment to apologize to everyone to whom I promised more Wii goodness on my blog. I couldn’t get internet access from my hotel last night (despite a 45 minute conversation with a tech support guy). And, in a somewhat ironic turn of events, the internet access here at MIX08 is pretty miserable.
As in… I have trouble even pulling my own blog up half the time.
So I’ve decided to wait until I get back to Salt Lake City before I try to finish all my posts.
Put me on your RSS feed… I’ll be going nuts on the blog over the next week putting up all the WPF/Wiimote stuff, catching up on my normal WPF tutorials and starting to dive into Silverlight.
And, because I know that my wonderful fiance is reading this (as well as picking me up from the airport)… I’ll see you this evening, lovely.
