We mentioned this before, but those of us without kids might think Kids Corner would be pretty useless, however as we previously mentioned there are some pretty cool uses you can make of it, rather than just a place for your kids to mess around. http://mynokiablog.com/2013/01/29/alternate-uses-for-kids-corner-on-windows-phone-8/ Well here’s another cool idea coming from reddit, the […]
