Are you volunteering to write it?I don't think Hexus has much of an in-house Windows programming presence - plenty on the forums, obviously, but not many in the staff. I guess it'll be low priority (otherwise we'd presumably have an android (and potentially iOS) app by now...).
Plus, presumably there's some kind of RSS feed live tile, which you could just point at the hexus RSS feed?
We invest a ton of time developing and this is something which will come soon....
Am I the only one that thinks, Whats wrong with having the site open in your web browser?Originally Posted by TheAnimus

Your missing the point.
Live tiles can be simply a pinned web page, where the page can push updates to be displayed on the tile. If your actually using the metro UI bit at all, its rather handy.

The problem I have found with Live Tiles well with news content is you see a story and think yeah wouldnt mind reading that, so click the tile and the story is no where to be found.
For instance, on one of the tiles, the masters snooker was showing, I clicked it and all I got was football, couldnt find anything about snooker on the entire "app" lol
