A new version of the Windows ACK (and the SDK) is now available to download. This new version of the ACK will be enforced by the Store certification system in December, but you can start using it right now to improve the quality of your applications. Among other new tests and improvements, this new version will verify that the app icon shown in the Store is not the default one. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/desktop/hh852363

Designing websites has been a common practice for decades. With Windows 8 Consumer Preview, designers and developers can use the web technologies they are familiar with, including HTML5, Cascading Style Sheets, Level 3 (CSS3), and JavaScript, to build Metro style apps for Windows. Here we explore how to expose the capabilities of a website to make it a great Metro style app for Windows 8 and show ways to provide additional value, personalization, and richer experiences using features of the Windows 8 platform.
Our aim is to help designers and developers reimagine their websites as Metro style apps.
