9 Year Old Develops iPhone Apps

According to http://www.nydailynews.com/money/2009/02/05/2009-02-05_nineyearold_lim_ding_wen_from_singapore_.html Lim Din Wen, a 9 year old kid, has already developed one application for the iPhone.

What I found most moving was his reasons for developing the program. He said: “I wrote the program for my younger sisters, who like to draw.” He is already moving ahead with developing a game called “Invader Wars”

When I think back upon what few things I remember from that age computer programming wasn’t any of them. So he could potentially reach very far if he proceeds along that path. Nice to see.
