[APP] Totally Swank - A Minimal Urban Dictionary Client

Download the app here.

Sometimes I need to quickly look up a term I find on the internet, and currently the only Urban Dictionary app for WP has a really garish and cluttered interface. My current project (a client for The Old Reader) had to be put on hold temporarily so I decided to finish this up, a project I started a while ago to learn about a WP dev framework.

It's pretty much the opposite of the current app: extremely minimal. Probably too minimal for its own good, but eh, it fits my needs.

To do:

• Add "Random Search" functionality
• Sharing (that's better than just giving you a browser link)
• Live tile with word of the day
• Backport to WP7 (sorry guys)

Urban Dictionary doesn't have an API, which means I have to scrape their web pages which is always wonky. If you find any words that cause the app to crash, be sure to tell me. Thanks!

Thanks for bringing a new app to the attention of our members here on WPCentral. It looks interesting and useful. Good luck with your app, and please feel free to check out the other forums and interact with members here.
