(See more “teaser” screenshots)

Subscribe to it and you can follow up the Imagine Cup 2009 worldwide finals: the latest news, tweets and photos from Egypt. Imagine Cup, run for seventh time already, is a global student technology competition focused on finding solutions to real-world issues.

The Slice designed in Silverlight is using Twitter and Flickr services, and is hosted on Windows Azure cloud computing platform. 
 
Any feedback is more than welcome! Thank you to Giorgio Sardo for his support during the project.
