Three Reasons Developers Should Use Expression Blend
Description
Have you ever wanted the flexibility of dependency injection without having to implement a full-blown IoC solution? Maybe you just want an easy way to pass concrete services to your ViewModel? This short video will show you you can use XAML to configure your ViewModels to provide a property-based dependency injection solution. You can also read a full write up and download demo code on my blog.

JeffBrand @mark: Hi mark. Sorry for the video problems. I messed something up somewhere along the way. I have re-processed the vid and the HiQuality files are much better. The default vid may still be choppy depending on bandwidth.

mark @SlickThought: Video is clear now :) You've done a nice job of isolating DI-->XAML without getting the viewer lost in a complex example. Well worth the viewing!

davewill nice job! focused and demonstrable.

JeffBrand @cellra: I am constructing the dependency in XAML and then binding it to the property I want to inject into. There is no code behind used for the injection itself.
