WinMo Twitter Widget StarterKit

Are you interested in building simple Windows Mobile Apps to monitor twitter hash tags?  Check out the WinMo Twitter Widget StarterKit. 

http://tweetviewwidget.codeplex.com

When I was out at a couple conferences last year, I seemed to always be searching on twitter hash tags to see what was going on.  I decided to built a simple widget that I could quickly open, see the latest “happenings” and close it back down.

For MIX10 this year, an app I built and published it to Marketplace for Windows Mobile.  I used this as a basis and created a simple starter kit.  Not only can this quickly create a widget to monitor hash tags it gives you a good idea of what’s involved with creating widgets.

Enjoy
