Four Of The Best Apps From Microsofts NYC Mobile Acceleration Week

Mobile Acceleration WeekIf you've been paying attention this morning, you're perhaps somewhat aware of a program Microsoft has in place called Mobile Acceleration Week (part of its BizSpark program), where 12 hand-picked startups can access hands-on support and training to build compelling apps for the Windows Phone platform. MAWs happen all over the world all year long, but I was lucky enough to catch up with some of the participants of New York's Mobile Acceleration Week, and was pretty pleased with the apps I saw. Microsoft gives each startup 60 days to push the app to market, so don't get too excited and start hunting through the Marketplace. You won't find what you're looking for just yet. But considering that today's theme (at least in my world) seems to be the state of Redmond's mobile app platform, I thought it'd be worthwhile to give you a look at where the Marketplace is headed, and what you might find there in the coming weeks.
