Microsoft is currently way behind, but with over 150,000 apps already available through Windows Phone Store, and with a good response on Windows Phone 8, it’s reasonable to expect that the giant from Redmond will not allow itself to stay far back. But this is not really just about mobile…

The Day I Stopped Touching You know how some people don’t like others to touch their belongings without their permission? Well that’s how my mom is and she is very strict about those kinds of things.
