Angry Birds Reaches 500 Million Downloads Worldwide

It seems we just can’t get enough of those Angry Birds, with developer Rovio announcing that the game has been downloaded a whopping 500 million times worldwide.

The half a billion downloads are made up of the three Angry Birds games currently available: Angry Birds, Angry Birds Rio, and Angry Birds Seasons.

Key to the game’s success is its cross-platform nature, with Angry Birds available to download on most platforms you could care to name, with iOS, Android, web, Mac, and Windows all present, and versions also set to come to the Nokia Asha 300 and 303 phones…

“This is a fantastic landmark achievement for us, and we’re extremely delighted to see such an incredible amount of people enjoying our games,” said Mikael Hed, CEO of Rovio. “We remain committed to creating more fun experiences and bringing exceptional quality to Angry Birds fans everywhere.”

The Angry Birds secreet is undoubtedly its accessibility, with seasoned games and new players alike being drawn into the world of firing birds at pigs in makeshift structures.

Angry Birds has been so successful that a market for merchandise has spring up, with plushtoys and more available to buy.

Originally available as an iPhone game, Angry Birds has found game and fortune thanks to a simple game mechanic that has gamers coming back for more, thanks to that “one more level”feeling.

According to Rovio, Angry Birds players have so far racked up a staggering 200,000 years worth of gaming across the three games. That’s a lot of birds being thrown each and every minute!

61% of Mobile Devices Accessing the Web Run iOS

When it comes to mobile platforms, there are tons of ways to measure success. Android leads in market share, iOS leads in customer satisfaction, and Windows Phone, well Windows Phone isn’t posing any major threats yet — but it has potential.

But perhaps one of the most precise ways of measuring the real-world impact of a platform is to gauge how many users are actually using it. And what better way to do that than by tracking which mobile OS accesses the web the most?

The Loop points to a recently published report from NetApplications, a mobile analytics firm. The company tracks over 40,000 websites and their traffic data via its network, and frequently publishes its findings.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise that NetApplications’ data showed that 61% of mobile devices accessing the web are running iOS. Apple dominates the tablet market, and the competition still doesn’t have an answer for its iPod touch.

Android users came in second, garnering 18.9% of mobile web usage. That means iOS almost has a 50 point lead over its Google-backed rival, which is interesting considering that Google’s purpose for Android was getting mobile users to its website.

Of course research involving 40,000 sites doesn’t speak for the entire web, but it does give us a good idea of what the numbers look like. I wonder why there is such a big difference between the two platforms. Aren’t Android users taking advantage of their LTE speeds?

Un gran visionario!!
