Wish List Windows 8 App Series Introduction

I am planning to start a series of posts documenting my progress through implementing a Windows 8 app.  There is plenty here that is completely new to me so don't expect anything ground breaking.  This is more about giving some general guidance and helping others over the pitfalls that I fell into.

The high level view of the app is that it allows the user to collect lists of products that they wish that they could buy.  This will be stored in the cloud so there will be an Azure component to this and ultimately a website to provide access from platforms other than Windows 8.  The primary mechanism for adding to their wish lists will be through sharing URI's via the share contract.  Long term there might be some help in finding good deals for those items but one thing at a time.
