This year’s March Apps Madness kicked off a few weeks ago, and we’ve seen big apps go up against independent apps with the voting being entertaining and surprising all at the same time.

We began with 32 apps divided into four categories that went head-to-head in a competition that drew an amazing amount of votes and lots of interest from developers.

Thanks to all who made App Madness 2013 a reality, from the developers who tweeted and blogged about their apps to the fans who voted in each round.

Without further ado, let’s unveil the big winner!

The winner of the 2013 March Apps Madness is All About Windows Phone!

Keep up to date with the latest Windows Phone news, reviews, apps and much more with the FREE All About Windows Phone (AAWP) app. AAWP is a widely read independent source of information for the Windows Phone platform.

The app includes the latest articles, device, app and game reviews, tutorials, opinion-editorials, links, media and podcasts. You can now easily browse, read and share all the essential news quickly and easily on the move and the live tile support will notify you when new articles are available so you can stay ahead of the game.

For the second straight year, an independent app won March Apps Madness, indicating to us that Conversations readers might have a soft spot for the little guy.

Here is the final bracket, so you can see how it all played out.
