O#3: New Generation of Technology: APPs


    25 billion apps have been downloaded from Apple app store. That's a lot of apps. The winner is a Chinese and won 10,000 dollars app store credit. Since Apple app store's creation, 14 billion apps had been downloaded by March/April 2011. Less than a year later, app store had its 25 billion downloads. The speed of its development is incredible fast. 



    
It is amazing how fast the apps has been developed. It started for iPhones and iPods and later on there are more apps available for iPads. With the development of iPads, the speed of increasing apps has been faster than ever. 


History of Mobile Apps
   
    I have tons of apps on my phone and some of them are incredibly useful. I use online banking app to check my account balance at anytime and anywhere. One of the benefits of apps is that they can provide the functions you need without the limits of time and places.   Plus, the network can not be more convenient nowadays. You can get internet access easily through your 3G phone network and wifi. 


    The easy access of internet has provided a platform for the apps' development. Everything you can imagine can be provided in applications. People don't have to rely on computers, and phones and tablets devices are lighter than computers and laptops. We should take advantage of apps, and make the best use of them.
