\"ipad_medium_size.jpg\"Flurry<\/a>, the analytics firm for mobile applications, has released an updated snapshot<\/a> of iPad developer activities. <\/p>\n

Flurry’s Peter Farago broke it down on the Flurry blog. <\/p>\n

“iPad made up 22% of new projects starts within Flurry over the last 60 days. In March, over 3,000 unique applications were created within Flurry. A second point of interest is that Android’s share of new project starts has decreased from 18% to 8%.”<\/p>\n

However, Farago cautions against concluding that Android development is falling off. <\/p>\n

“Android’s percent has declined because iPhone and iPad growth is increasing at a rate faster than that of Android.”<\/p>\n

He also notes that Blackberry development is down, with only 1% of developers tackling that device, down from 4% in 2009. This is within the Flurry system of developers, it is worth noting. <\/p>\n

The following graphic consists of “averages taken across 2009 vs. the last 60 days.”\"flurry<\/p>\n

The take-away, in addition to the current spike of popularity for the iPad among developers, is the fact that “(t)he total pie is growing significantly, month over month.” <\/p>\n

Mobile continues to be a growth industry, as ReadWriteWeb has observed<\/a> a number<\/a> of times<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Update<\/strong>: A typo in the Flurry report indicated that “Android’s share of new project starts has decreased from 18% to 8%.” It should, reflecting the graphic, say that it had “decreased from 18% to 10%.”<\/p>\n
