Windows Phone inspired website

By George Ponder
last updated

Aspiring Tech Evangelist Sahas Katta has designed a rather cool looking website using the Windows Phone as the centerpiece. Katta has taken what's basically the Windows Phone emulator and turned it into a personal webpage.

Complete with a swipe to unlock feature, the Windows Phone has tiles to access Katta's resume, social networking sites, references to his tech site, and contact information. The phone also includes the ability to change the Windows Phone Theme, access Bing Maps, and access to a Flickr gallery.

The site is an impressive, unique way to present your credentials. Plus it's not a bad plug for Windows Phones.  You can see it all at sahaskatta.com.

Thanks goes out to Jake for the tip!

  • That's cool! Looks like I need to step up my game on my full website (Windows 8-inspired design: http://www.columnbreak.com) and mobile site (Windows Phone 7-inspired design: http://m.columnbreak.com).
  • I don't know. I'm really liking your site too!
  • Thanks! I'm not the best web developer, but I'm trying over here! ;)
  • Wow, beautiful site(s) you have there.It seems like you hit the Windows 8 theme dead on. Don't get me too excited about Windows 8 though, I still gotta wait another looong year before I can get it on my X220T :(I definitely think sahas went all out on his site, and I gotta respect that. A LOT. He not only did the design, but the entire "emulator" (the Bing search works too!!) with consistent Metro design and flow. How sick would it be if his mobile site set the virtual phone's screen inside your phone browser screen??I love your site too because Metro UI is amazing. It's meant to be simple and smooth and that's what it is.
  • I think your site is brilliant. No need to change anything, in my opinion.
  • I would have to say pretty good on all three.
  • Thanks! Sahas's site is super fluid. He's got some serious skills.
  • I did a similar site a while ago which is a hybrid Windows Phone 7 and Windows 8 interface. Looks and works even better if you are looking from a touchscreen device, as swipes and touch gestures are supported. You can see it here, but you need Silverlight installed:http://rd.eikospartners.com/
