Demand for mobile developers, whether its mobile Web or mobile application development, is on the rise in a big way. According to recent research by IDC and Appcelerator, 63 percent of 6,046 Titanium developers surveyed said their skills have seen “increased” or “greatly increased” demand from enterprises in the past six months.

Tablet Growth
