Hello.

I've finally posted the demo code from my Buzz talk at TwitterDevNest. Find it on GitHub: PaulKinlan/BuzzInOutDemo.

In this first part of my series on C# Trackback implementation, I delve into the Trackback Ping functionality, providing a comprehensive code explanation. While I remain unconvinced about the overall effectiveness of Trackbacks, exploring the implementation in C# has been an interesting coding exercise.

A quick follow-up to my last post about the XAML menu example: It no longer uses the Animated Gel Button animation, and the GelButton code modification I mentioned actually came from a different page on the same site I linked previously.

I've updated my fish-eye effect code with added comments. The effect is based on Jason Waltman's work, which in turn references a paper by Devernay and Faugeras on correcting distorted images. The paper details a method for determining distortion and converting images to a standard pinhole camera model. My code produces the desired fish-eye effect, and I've provided the C# source code for download. While I haven't fully delved into the paper, it seems to offer more in-depth analysis of image distortion correction.
