Look here : http://dotnet-forum.de/blogs/thearchitect/archive/2012/11/01/die-optimale-implementierung-des-inotifypropertychanged-interfaces.aspx

It's written in German, but you can download the ViewModelBase.cs. All the comments in the cs-File are written in English.

With this ViewModelBase-Class it is possible to implement bindable properties similar to the well known Dependency Properties :

public string SomeProperty
{
    get { return GetValue( () => SomeProperty ); }
    set { SetValue( () => SomeProperty, value ); }
}
