Windows 8 officially launches on October 26th, and it’s already generating quite a few questions on Stack Overflow.  So when Microsoft approached us about sponsoring an app development contest, we thought it was a great idea.

Today we’re announcing Apptivate.ms, a Windows 8 App Development Contest sponsored by Microsoft.

The contest has two parts:

A Developer Contest for people interested in writing applications

A Reviewer Contest for people interested in reviewing and voting on apps

You can participate – and win prizes – in both categories, so even if you aren’t interested in developing your own app you can still participate by helping others by reviewing their submissions. …

I was looking for a snappy definition of Avodah Zarah, and Wikipedia was unhelpful.
@Narnian. It looks blooming complicated. As near as I can work out, it's to do with idolatry (though actually they appear to conflate idolatry with polytheism), and is to do more with whether it looks like idolatry than whether the worshipers themselves would consider it so. — TRiG 1 min ago
Am I on roughly the right lines?
