title: What is the difference between the WPF TextBlock element and Label control?
body: <p>Visually both of the following snippets produce the same UI. So why are there 2 controls..<br>
  <strong>Snippet1</strong>  </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;TextBlock&gt;Name:&lt;/TextBlock&gt;
  &lt;TextBox Name="nameTextBox" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>Snippet2</strong></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;Label&gt;Name:&lt;/Label&gt;
  &lt;TextBox Name="nameTextBox" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
