Not Silverlight as far as I know. We ran the Ticker a lot at TechEd and encountered that issue only occassionaly. The 7 Days, Yesterday, and Today views should loop, and the Now view should just end, which might look like a lock up. We also had to build the Ticker using the feeds of the Bookmarking *Preview,* which limited us to 100 bookmarks per query (among other things), so we had to do some creative coding to render 7 end-to-end feeds that accuratyely sampled bookmarks from the week in one flow. Other than that bug, I hope you like it - I like the Now view most.&lt;/p&gt;
