Google’s $10M Android Competition Opens

By Reshma Kumar at January 19, 2008 0 Comments

Android Developer ChallengeWant to develop applications for Google’s new Android mobile phone platform and make a cool $275K?! Google has put $10M into a competition to do just that. The idea is to develop a lot of original cool apps that are highly functional as well as usable. The apps need to access core Android functionality like location-based services, accelerometer and always-on networking.

The smartphone market is heating up and Google is looking to the development community to create the killer app that’s going to make people switch to Android. Apple also recently announced that it will be releasing an iPhone/iPod Touch SDK in late Feb.
