Creating a Share Target
The other half of sharing is being a share target. A share target appears in the list of apps when you open the Share charm. For example, if you are creating a photo gallery app then you might want to make the app a share target for pictures.
The My Notes app acts as a share target for text or HTML content. For example, if you are in the standard Windows Mail app, you can click the Share charm to create a new note that contains the email message. Or, if you are viewing a web page in Internet Explorer then you can click the Share charm to create a note that contains a summary of the web page (see Figure 13.5 and Figure 13.6).
