I am in phase of learning Silverlight 3 & .NET RIA services.

Came across the link containing a great example. http://blogs.msdn.com/brada/archive/2009/03/17/mix09-building-amazing-business-applications-with-silverlight-3.aspx

So thought of bookmarking it in my blog.

When I was web surfing I came across Meteotek08 Blog, it’s a project where a team of 5 constructs a weather probe with which they collect data and images.

What was interesting to me was 2 things.
1. The making of the probe.
2. The images which the probe took.

The web site offers the following features.

• Searching

Some years back I bought some music CDs which were of instrumental type and soon got bored of listening them. So I was searching online for more music to buy and download, and stumbled upon Ambient Nights a web site where you can find some mellow tracks.

This web site offers all the music free of cost except for the VIP Section and can be downloaded using torrent technology.

The person behind these music Alex, has a great talent to stitch tracks together to make a CD which will take your soul to a different level.

I would suggest you to listen to the online version where you can sample and then download the full quality version.

Happy Listening.

Some times when we think about doing a long distance international call, we get confused about country, state & city prefix codes.

There is a good web site which helps for such a situation.

Country Codes (http://www.countrycodes.com) is a web site which help to get the dialling details from one country to another country and its very simple.

It's very simple to get the instructions.

1. Select the source and destination country.
2. Select the state of the destination country.
3. Select the city of the destination country.

And that's it you get the dialling details.

This web site uses AJAX, is fast and responsive.
