10k Smart Coding Challenge?

MIX09’s MIXIFY have came out with a new competition:
“INSPIRE THE WORLD WITH JUST 10K”

MIX09_Color_RGB_tag

Well, the title says it all, create a web application (with Silverlight or WPF XBAPs) with just only 10 kilobytes of code (only the xaml, cs, vb, or "language of your choice" files and embedded resources are counted against the 10 kilobyte limit). Check the site for it’s detail requirements.

It is a great idea where it encourage developers to exercise the minimalist creativity and get back to basics on optimizing every chunk of codes – where in the broadband age nowadays where everyone (most of the developers / designers out there) are exploiting the bandwidth luxury.

Happy coding.
Cheers ~

SQL Server 2008?

Check out this very cool Silverlight site: SQL Server 2008

SQL Server Envergy
* SQL Server Energy site

Since Silverlight comes in a blue flare-like ball, does SQL Server now comes in a plasma-energy ball? Cheers ~

P/S: Found a bug tough… as it stop showing any buttons at one point time.
Thus, failed to navigate further.

Visual Studio 2008 + Silverlight (V2) Tools?

Got this when I was installing the latest Silverlight Tools.

printscreen - silverlight

Well guys, if you are installing Silverlight Tools for Visual Studio 2008, just make sure that you have Visual Studio 2008 SP1 installed.

Also not forgetting .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 too.
