What's a "mobile app"? You mean "iphone app"?
Monday, July 6, 2009 at 1:01PM The term "mobile app" is starting to become commonplace. I can use it with my dad and he knows what I mean. People have heard enough in the press and done enough shopping in the iTunes store to get the idea of buying software for a cell phone. But will Apple, who indirectly coined the term "podcast" with their omnipresent iPod, do the same thing with the iPhone?
Here you can see that people started looking around for information about mobile apps back in the middle of 2007.

Getting back to the original question of "iphone" becoming the "Q-tips®" of mobile, here's one last search trend for you to ponder:
This doesn't necessarily mean anything, but google trends is fun to play with.

Some time ago, I did need to buy a good car for my organization but I didn't earn enough money and could not order anything. Thank heaven my colleague suggested to take the credit loans at reliable creditors. Therefore, I acted that and was satisfied with my financial loan.
