ToList() function not appearing in intellisense

This is more of a reminder to myself than a well written blog. On a few occassions it took me quite a while to figure out why ToList() function was not available to the argument returned back after a WCF service had completed. On one occassion it was literally mind boggling. The reason turned out to be was quite simple : I had missed including a using statement for assembly System.Linq. Now that it has occurred again i am blogging to primarily benefit myself and if somebody else benefits then I'd be more than happy.

Chrome and Firefox: making mouse wheel working with Silverlight map control

The other day I stumbled upon a situation which I though was a limitation with Silverlight Bing Map Control. The mouse wheel wasn't working with zooming while using either of Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox browsers. I posted it at MSDN forums and was promptly fed back by an expert. Here is the link for whole thread :

The key setting to make in host page(hosting silverlight content) is : Windowless="false".
Have fun!!
