When Windows 8 was released I was pretty excited about the idea of the apps and the Windows Store. Having all the apps in one store had the potential to make it so much easier to find them than hunting all over the web for new and interesting programs. This makes things so much more convenient, especially for novice computer users.
Only one thing ruins that idea though. There are so many apps that I wasn't sure which ones would be best to try out, even with the small number of apps that first appeared in the store. So I began searching for websites that could advise me on a few good apps that I might like to try. I imagined that somebody would showcase a few good apps on a regular basis that I might like. But of course I never found a site that might want to do something like that though, so I became kind of frustrated.
I've been blogging and doing other similar things for several years, but I never thought to write about my love of technology before. I just figured other people had it covered pretty well up till now. But now I've discovered that there is a need for someone to spotlight Windows 8 Store apps. Since nobody else seems to want to do that, then I guess I'll do it myself.
I'm going to bring you recommendations of apps I think are worth trying out, and I'm also going to bring you news of events and sales I find involving Windows 8 Store apps. There have been many times I've discovered paid apps go on sale for free, and I wished I could share that information with someone. Now I have a way of doing that kind of thing and more here at Windows 8 App News.
