Windows Phone Sites Around the World

I recently released an update of my Windows Phone app Pictures Lab which brings some nice new features like effect combination, two Christmas and a New Year frame and most importantly 7 new languages. Pictures Lab 4.0 now supports 9 languages: English, German, Japanese, Russian, Dutch, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese. This was made possible by a group of awesome native-speaking translators: Alan Mendelevich, Takeshi Miyauchi, David Salazar, Joost van Schaik, Johan Peeters, Paolo Barone, Simone Chiaretta, Pedro Lamas and Quentin Calvez.


I also asked my translators if they know any local Windows Phone news sites / blogs. Below is a list of international and regional Windows Phone news sites we collected. Note, that those are primarily consumer sites read by consumers and not only for developers. This list could be useful if you plan to release a localized version of your app and want to promote it a bit. Most sites have a "Tip Us" or contact form and are mostly happy about new content to write posts about.

Forget this list! 
Head over to @ailon's awesome dedicated site: http://windowsphonesites.com

If you know more sites, please leave a comment and I'll update the list.

Telerik published a nice whitepaper with more resources about app promotion.
