lock screenMore examination of the MUI resources for various apps in Windows Phone 8 has revealed some more new features.

One of them is Live Lock Screen apps.  Unfortunately its not exactly clear what these are, but the MUI file for Kids Corner, as uncovered by Windows Phone Lover, shows that Kids Corner will not work with these enabled, suggesting they may be interactive.

Another titbit uncovered by Windows Phone Lover is that the Windows Phone Store will now give you app recommendations based on your Facebook friends, which is another sign that Facebook integration is not quite going away in Windows Phone.
