Microsoft: we misspoke, actually, they're 'Windows Store apps'

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/10/screenshot-4-1351449104.jpg It happens all the time – someone misspoke. During an address at Build yesterday, a Microsoft employee told a crowd that the company has taken to calling its apps "Windows 8 Store Applications." Turns out that’s not quite right – the proper terminology is the slightly more elegant “Windows Store apps,” as per a note from a Redmond spokesperson. So there you go. No more Metro, no more “Windows 8 Store applications” – just plain, old “Windows 8 Store apps.”
