Three weeks ago we kicked off “Idea of the Week”. Students have been challenged to antecedent their app thought for a possibility to win a $ 50 Amazon present card. I’m happy to have known the initial 2 winners:
- Johnny Simmons (@simzzdev) posted his thought which brings friends together by GPS value hunts.
- Carlos Barreto (@cbarretopy) combined a antecedent of how to spin your phone’s camera in to a apparatus to assistance we prepare objects so they have been true & level.
We have been selecting the most appropriate thought any week thru Dec 25th, so there is still time. To take partial in the competition, we contingency be a tyro and have an thought for a Windows Phone app. To stick on in the fun, follow these elementary steps:
- Sign up for DreamSpark (www.dreamspark.com), get Expression Studio (free of assign for students from the DreamSpark site) and the Sketchflow Template for Windows Phone
- Create a Sketchflow antecedent of your app thought and post the antecedent online
- Tweet out the couple to your antecedent regulating the hashtag “#wpappitup”. For example, “Check out my idea, UltimateApp, at http://www.findyourcolony.com #wpappitup”
The central manners have been posted here. No Purchase Necessary. Open only to students 18+. Game ends 12/25/11.
Looking for a Great Idea?
We mostly listen to from developers which they have been seeking for the subsequent good app idea. They know how to set up apps though only haven’t found the right thing to work on. Last month Core77 launched “Fast Track to the Mobile App Contest”. The concentration is on removing extraordinary designs for capability apps. We pattern which most of the participating designers will need assistance from developers to get the apps built and released.
Core77 is usurpation pattern submissions by Nov 18th and will be awarding a little good prizes to those who have the cut (see here for the details). If we have been seeking for your subsequent app idea, we inspire we to revisit http://fasttrackapp.core77.com/developers. Winning designers wish to see their ideas come to hold up and you, the different developers, have the skills to get the pursuit done.
