Blog Series: [Your App Here] Campaign – Introduction

Microsoft have recently announced a new advertising campaign that will showcase your Windows Phone 7 application if you win. This summary of what this entails:

• Each month from December through February, up to seven apps will be selected and promoted in campaigns created and funded by Windows Phone.
• The prize: Winning apps will be featured in a digital Windows Phone advertising campaign, with banner ads and up to one million ad impressions across the MSN Network of sites. During the campaign, apps will also get a featured placement on the Windows Phone Marketplace.

On this note I have decided to create a blog series on creating a Windows Phone 7 application from start to finish.  Currently there are three deadlines that you can enter your application to:

10/25 – For December 2011 Campaign Consideration
11/16 – For January 2012 Campaign Consideration
12/22 – For February 2012 Campaign Consideration

The application that I will be creating will be for a passion of mine… restaurants and dining out.

The blog series will include the folllowing:

1. Blog Series: [Your App Here] Campaign – Introduction
2. Blog Series: [Your App Here] Campaign – Getting Started
3. Blog Series: [Your App Here] Campaign – Prototyping and Initial Wireframing
