Looking for the hottest Australian apps - but tired of wading through
10,000's of titles on Windowspone Marketplace to find them?
Look no further - Developed Down Under is a community driven
initiative to showcase apps made by Australian Developers +
provide an aggregated news feed from the best Australian Windowsphone bloggers.
Developed Down Under is developed by mobilewares.net in
conjunction with

With Developed Down Under you can quickly browse through a
catalogue of available Apps from local aussie publishers (who have signed up to
this initiative) - drill down to view app details - and then if so desired - go
directly to the app's entry in Marketplace (allowing you to download/purchase
and rate the title). Using our online server - the catalogie of apps will also
update itself so you'll never be out of date.
You can also quickly locate localized apps made specifically for
Australians (such as news, weather, travel and more) - via the 'apps
for aussies' section. Don't know what Apps to install?
Get our randomly selected 'quick picks' from the catalogue -
and try out something completely new.
Tired of loading up 15 different news readers to get the latest Aussie
wp news? Developed Down Under provides a simple single news feed - and
our servers aggregate all the best stuff for you from bloggers + news sites.
Thanks to the following Aussie based WP7 news sites who have generously made
their content available in this App at launch include (click tiles to view

Great idea. I hope to see many more Aussie devs, and developers in general, making great apps for windows phone! Anything that supports that is a winner in my book.
