The Week Ahead–January 21, 2013

This week, we’re kicking of a series of recurring events in the Boston area focused on aiding Windows 8 and Windows Phone developers on their journey to submitting awesome applications to the Windows Store and the Windows Phone Store.

As I announced, last week, Chris, Michael, and I have set up the Boston Windows App Developers Meetup to consolidate all of our events in one place. Do join that meetup so that you’ll be in the loop!  I’m endeavoring to start a weekly practice of listing those events on a Monday morning blog post to help you plan your week as well.  Don’t forget to check my monthly technical event calendar (via the “calendar” icon in my blog header) for other events of interest in the area as well.

Note that some events may be held at the same time! but don’t worry, we’ll be running these sessions on roughly a weekly basis, so there’s always an opportunity to catch a given session in a following week.
