A few months ago people were wondering if Microsoft new bold Metro platform will be a viable platform to attract developers and businesses alike seeing the popularity of the Desktop and the Fischer-Price environment called Metro. Well, I have got news for those people, not only are developers buying into Metro (currently there are 1318 Apps in the Store), but businesses are buying into it too. There are notable business and serious Apps in the store right now, and today I want to mention one that has just dropped into the Store: The Stanford University App.
