Windows 8 Metro apps and the outside world from Prabhakaran Soundarapandian

Topic summary: Windows 8 Metro style apps will give users a great experience. Apps promise the user to be alive and connected. Being connected means interfacing with services and the cloud. But what options do we have to make the connection to the outside world? 
In this discussion, we could get to know to explore how WinRT apps can connect with services (WCF, REST...) and the cloud to offer a great experience.

Hope this sharing content was useful.
