RichCopy is always one of the first tools I install on any of my machines. It's an amazingly powerful tool. About the only thing missing with RichCopy is integration with Explorer Shell.
Perhaps I am reading too much into it but why did they not mention that they took down the previous blog post (http://www.thiswebhost.com/blog/2011/08/16/the-reddit-incide...)? They mention that they took down the tweets but why no mention of the blog posts?
According to this report: http://www.businessinsider.com/microsoft-was-interested-in-m..., Microsoft was not interested in buying Motorola. Instead, they were (supposedly) close to settling their patent dispute with Motorola, and signing a cross-licensing deal giving them access to Motorola's patents.
If Microsoft was settling their patent dispute with Motorola and looking at a cross-licensing agreement, that is all the more reason for Google to buy them. Either Google gets a cross-licensing deal and gets the protection they want for the Android ecosystem (at least from Microsoft) or Google winds up with a patent portfolio that Microsoft has already decided is dangerous.
IIRC the new version of Chrome Frame does not require Admin access any more. I think it runs a secondary process that injects Chrome Frame into any new instances of IE starting up.
Amazingly, it goes one further — reloading any pages that were already open before the Chrome Frame installer ran is sufficient to get the CF goodness on those pages!
I don't think you need to be in the US to develop for WP7. It does support other countries. Look at Yalla Apps (http://www.yallaapps.com/) if you are in a country that is not supported.

That might be relevant if it wasn't for the fact that Silverlight is not open source. They are under no obligation to show/blog their fix until they actually release. In fact, they would probably want to withhold it as long as possible if their intent is to damage WebGL.
