In the past couple of weeks my colleague, Dave Brown (no blog - come on Dave-o - join the throng), has been wow-ing me with some sensational Virtual Earth and Silverlight and WPF work.
Sadly, can't share this at the moment as it is PoC work for major customers. But it did remind me that I really need to get into and understand Virtual Earth capabilities a little more. Geospatial metaphors have been big for a while now, and I confess I wouldn't be very capable of throwing stuff together.

Anyhow, I see that Marc Schwiegert is making it easier for VE n00bs like me by developing a Codeplex project to enable javascript intellisense for the version 6.0 control. You can read more here, and find the project here.
