The vultures are circling the failed webOS-powered hardware victims, particularly the developers who have been making their money around building apps on the platform. Brandon Watson, the man responsible for apps and developers for Windows Phones, sent out a tweet on Friday to attract a response.

The response has been huge. Currently, nearly 1000 webOS developers have attempted to take him up on his offer.

To qualify, developers must have at least one application published on the webOS App Catalog.

With Android and iOS exploding with apps and being hit up by tens of thousands of developers worldwide, anything that Watson and his team can do to get more attention, more developers, and more apps is a plus.

What do you think?
