Getting started working with LINQ

I was so caught up with all the hype that came with LINQ TO SQL using VB.NET, and i just can't wait to try it for myself. At first it was a little awkward as it was like SQL but jumbled around, but then after a few minutes of playing around with it i found it so useful in the sense that i would have to code lesser. I do hope that we can have LINQ to Mysql in the next few months...
