Posted by at 3:11 pm on October 27, 2010

In the video below, Nathan Dunlap of IdentityMine demos the new official IMDb app for Windows Phone 7. He also shares with us a little about the other projects IdentityMine is working on for Windows Phone 7 and what makes a great Windows Phone 7 app.

The video below is worth watching since the IMDb app is one of the best uses of the Windows Phone UI model I have seen. IdentityMine has done a great job bringing IMDb to the phone, a much better version than the Android or iPhone version of the app.

So even if you are not into Movies or TV, but really who isn’t, the video is worth watching to get a good feel of the Windows Phone UI model and how it is different from Android or iPhone.
