The Week Ahead: April 15, 2013

Kudos to Lance McCarthy and the combined efforts of Telerik and Nokia on a wildly successful Boston Hackathon this past weekend. And congratulations not only to the six named winners but also to all the seasoned as well as brand-new Windows Phone developers who demoed THIRTY-FIVE applications produced during the weekend!  Each one of those apps, once published to the store will earn the developer (individual or team) a Nokia phone and $100 via the Keep the Cash program!
