Foursquare for Windows Phone

You can’t escape twitter without someone becoming the mayor of your favorite bar. So I wasn’t surprised to find that one of the most complete examples of a Windows Phone app is foursquare. Here are screenshots, courtesy of CodePlex.

I’m a little amused that they need to clarify it’s “an alpha release, even though everything works.” Of course it’s an alpha release; Windows Phone isn’t out yet, and the tools are still in CTP!

The team promises a cleaner version of the code in the following months. They rushed to get it out in time for the MIX 2010 Keynote.

Although it’s near complete, I’d wait for an update to the current toolset before using this a guide for creating a Windows Phone app. However, the nonrestrictive MIT license means you can use this code freely as a reference in designing your own application.
