Today, there are more than 500,000 apps available for the iPhone , Android and Apple's iPad tablet. Some are given away for free in an attempt to make money from ads. Others are sold by young and old entrepreneurs, as well as major companies.
As its audience has grown from about 58 million users in 2007 to 900million today, Facebook has become perhaps the most successful apps company . .
Every apps programming job creates another position in other non-technical areas such as sales, marketing, human resources and other administrative divisions.
