[DEV REQ] Gamertag Mobile(just an idea)

[jug6ernaut]

Ok I know there is already an My Gamertag App out there and it is a good one. But idk about everyone else but i want something a little more diverse. Here is my idea, one of the great thinks about the xbox360 is its friends and message system. Your friend comes online or you get a message a little popup comes up telling you. I want this but on my phone.

Details:

Program that you login to your gamertag and it displaces all your friends and messages. When a new friend goes online a popup(like txt message notification) comes up saying there are online(like on xbox360). When you get a new message a popup comes up telling you have a new message and from who.


While i do have some programming experience it is very limited. Considering this app would log you into your gamertag i think it would be rather difficult to write...but i think this would be an awesome app, one that i would be willing to put money towards :D.


What do you think?

Does Microsoft have such an api?

Does Microsoft have such an api?

to be honest im not sure, i know you can do all the things i stated by logging into your tag at xbox.com.

The only part that is up in the air is the messages, because friend information can be check online or with the apps like my gamertag the only diffense would be the popup system.

The messaging part may not be possible.

but i dont think u will be able to login, hopefully microsoft is working on a app like that, if i'm correct a couple years ago there were planning on making xboxlive on WinMo.

i would love an app like this. i have downloaded the my gamer tag app and this prog is great but i would like it to be intigrated into the TouchFlo3D so you get an xbox 360 friends list on the phone so it will operate like the weather tab. so all you have to do is log in your xbox account and it gives you your friends list of who is online and doing what also the ability to send and recieve messages would also be good. then all you have to do is goto the tab and press update to get it refreshed. just a thought. what do you think? is it possible?
