c - Simple circular gesture detection
I'm looking at a simple, programmatic way of detecting whether or not the user has drawn a circular shape. I'm working in C, but am happy to work from pseudo-code. A bit of Googling brings up a number of (hopefully) overly-complex methods.

Kinect 3D gesture recognition based on skeleton movements - What libraries exist?
The NITE library (on top of OpenNI) has classes for detecting swipe and other gestures, but personally I've had trouble with using both the base OpenNI and NITE libraries together in C# (I keep running in to AccessViolationExceptions). If you're writing managed code, the XnVNITE.net.dll is what has the swipe detection. It's found under the PrimeSense/NITE folder after you install NITE.

Woodstock for WPF - CodeProject®
This article presents a debugger visualizer for WPF called Woodstock. After Woodstock was released to the world, it was used as a prototype to design and develop a superior visualizer called Mole v4 For Visual Studio - With Editing. We recommend that you use Mole v4 For Visual Studio - With Editing as your primary WPF and Visual Studio visualizer, because its functionality is a superset of what Woodstock has to offer. However, if you are interested in learning about the evolution of Mole by seeing what came before it, be sure to read this article.

CoffeeScript
CoffeeScript is a little language that compiles into JavaScript. Underneath all those awkward braces and semicolons, JavaScript has always had a gorgeous object model at its heart. CoffeeScript is an attempt to expose the good parts of JavaScript in a simple way.

Visual Studio 11 User Interface Updates Coming in RC - The Visual Studio Blog - Site Home
With the release of Visual Studio 11 Beta back in February of this year, we introduced changes to the user experience based on two core design principles, the first being to give you more space for your content and the second being to draw more focus to that content. Since the debut of these changes there’s been significant community response and feedback. We’ve taken this feedback and based on what we heard have made a number of changes planned for Visual Studio 11 RC. I want to thank you for your continued feedback through this blog, and also through the various other community channels - please keep it coming.

“@alexissmirnov: Principles of User Interface Design http://t.co/HDpwjP6j#mhtnd

Principles of User Interface Design
Interfaces exist to enable interaction between humans and our world. They can help clarify, illuminate, enable, show relationships, bring us together, pull us apart, manage our expectations, and give us access to services. The act of designing interfaces is not art and they are not monuments unto themselves. Interfaces do a job and their effectiveness can be measured. They are not just utilitarian, however. The best interfaces can inspire, evoke, mystify, and intensify our relationship with the world.

App academy: the student developers building the Windows Phone ecosystem
Microsoft re-entered the mobile world with Windows Phone 7 in late 2010 after scrapping its stylus-burdened Windows Mobile operating system. Although critics argue the company doesn't have enough quality applications yet, many have been quick to praise Microsoft's design and user interface efforts. Microsoft can't solve its app situation overnight, but its focus on bringing the top apps to Windows Phone and student activities suggest that it's in the race for the long term. Lower said that, following an emphasis on student developers with the release of Microsoft’s latest 7.5 Mango update, "we’ve seen an 8-times increase in the number of student apps published each month." Prior to the release of Mango, students created an average of 450 apps a month, and this figure has now risen to over 3,500 per month.

In my previous blog post I outlined the approach I’d be taking to gesture recognition, and discussed how I’d detect whether the user is moving or stationary. As a reminder, my high-level approach to the gesture recognition process is as follows:
