  • A Peek Behind the MySpace API

If you're just interested in poking at the code, then the link above is all you need to get started together with the MIX session videos I posted earlier. Read More...

  • Silverlight 2 Beta 1 Ships

    If you didn't watch the MIX keynote yesterday then you missed out on the debut of Silverlight 2. You can still go back and watch the Day 1 Keynote or carry on with these resources.

The two keynotes are: 9:30 AM - 12 PM today by Ray Ozzie, Scott Guthrie, and Dean Hachamovitch 1 PM - 3 PM tomorrow by Steve Ballmer and Guy Kawasaki The MIX web site will hopefully have details and links by the time you read this.
