Windows 8: flickR searching demo in .NET and JS

| Thursday, April 5, 2012

I didn’t implement all of the search contract, just a little of it and we didn’t get into how your application is launched for search and that kind of thing.

This isn’t meant to be comprehensive or complete or correct or anything like that. I miss various things out like error handling and things like what to do when your app is launched for search rather than when it’s already running.

Here’s the video, I’d recommend full screen or download;
