Microsoft MVP Program is a reflection of what happens in the Microsoft communities. The communities are a reflection of the passion of people around a subject. The updates from the MVP Program truly reflect the pulse of people.
Whether you are an existing MVP, MVP Alumni or someone who is aspiring to be an MVP you would be interested in knowing the “pulse” from the MVP Program as it happens. And now it is easier to stay tuned to that pulse..
Abhishek Kant, Community Program Manager – South Asia has just released a Windows Phone 7 Application that let’s you keep track of the program updates from South Asia and the MVP Program worldwide. The application brings together various sources of information on the MVP Program and presents them in a single interface. This app makes it easy to catch up the latest when you are commuting for work, waiting for a meeting or to board a flight/ train.
The application is available for FREE from the Windows Phone 7 marketplace for all markets around the world at:

You can also get this application by going to Windows Marketplace and searching for “South Asia MVP”. The application is titled “South Asia MVP Updates”.
You don’t have to be an MVP to get this application. But you do need a Windows Phone 7 and a data connection active on your handset to use this app!
We welcome the feedback on the application in the comments below.
