Proud to be a part of echoecho
The last few days echoecho app for Windows Phone is featured in Windows Phone Marketplace (that means a lot of downloads). This is a great opportunity to write a bit about that – something I was planning to do for a while, but never found the time. (What else is new?) Continue reading...
How to link to the Windows Phone Marketplace?
This may sound trivial, but it is not. If you want to link to your (or someone else’s) application on Windows Phone Marketplace, the worst thing you can do is to copy/paste the link from your web-browser. Like this: Continue reading...

My first Mango app submitted - Find a number
I’ve just submitted a Mango app to the Marketplace. Of course, it is not available yet, since it has to go through the certification process, but I believe it will do just fine, since it’s so simple. Continue reading...
All Windows Phone InputScope Screenshots

Free e-book: Silverlight for Windows Phone
Puja Pramudya from Microsoft Innovation Center in Indonesia has written a e-book about Windows Phone application development. To tell you the truth, I haven’t read it (yet), but it seems quite good, especially for the beginners. Be aware – this is not one of that 20-page e-books, it has more than 150 pages and at the end, there are two step-by-step tutorials for developing two sample applications, from “start Visual Studio” to the final touch. Continue reading...
Windows Phone 7 Accelerometer Test App
Aww, what a title. It’s quite simple, actually. The first thing I’ve done when I got my first WP7 device was testing it’s accelerometer. As you may know, accelerometer cannot be used in emulator (actually, there is a way, but that’s not it – I want to move some hardware around the air and rotating monitor does not work).

Mobility Day drawing apps – Silverlight to WP7
Last week I attended a (great) conference Mobility Day and organizers asked me to build a small Silverlight application for prize giveaway at the end of the day. Every participant had a number at the back of their ID card and if the wheel stopped at your number, the prize was yours. Application itself is very simple and it took me maybe an hour to build it from scratch. The important thing is that it can be run from any computer from the web, and the total number of participants can be set via URL, like this: http://demo.dizzy.hr/mobilitydaydrawing/?max=333. To use the app, first focus it and then expand to full screen with F11 key. Wheel can be started and stopped by mouse click or space key. Not really a smart application, but useful and attractive.

If you have touchscreen monitor, your experience will be much better, but that’s not a requirement.
