Bing Food Cart Finder

The Bing Food Cart Finder helps hungry foodies locate and learn about places to eat. The app initially covers only Portland and tracks over 250 food carts in the area. It shows Foursquare activity associated with each cart, allows you to slice and dice them by their various attributes, and even maps tweets related to the carts. We delivered all of the code for this project in a crazy short time frame. It has a silverlight experience which lives within the Bing Map App framework, a downlevel experience for this without silverlight here and an iphone optimized experience using jQTouch.

Here are some pics of it in action:
