Please, do. I’ll buy it and tell you if it works 🙂
I just need to figure out what your definition of Rich is.
See, this is why Enginerds are idiots. See all the crap you have to build just to hit it big?
We joke around about Realtors/Wall Street Bankers,etc being “idiots”…Quite the contrary. These folks are the smart ones. They figured it out a long time ago that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. We enginerds needed to wait for a mathematical proof before we believed it.
BTW: And if at any point while you are writing your iphone app, and are getting frustrated why things don’t work, and think this is really difficult after spending countless weeks on a problem, just remember this to keep you motivated….You’re not going to let a 9 year old kid beat you are you???? http://www.reuters.com/article/technologyNews/idUSTRE5140FI20090205
Certainly not! (Just make sure your ego doesn’t get too bruised, lol… Article below).
SINGAPORE (Reuters) – While most children his age sketch on paper with crayons, nine-year old Lim Ding Wen from Singapore, has a very different canvas — his iPhone.
Lim, who is in fourth grade, writes applications for Apple’s popular iPhone. His latest, a painting program called Doodle Kids, has been downloaded over 4,000 times from Apple’s iTunes store in two weeks, the New Paper reported on Thursday.
The program lets iPhone users draw with their fingers by touching the iPhone’s touchscreen and then clear the screen by shaking the phone.
“I wrote the program for my younger sisters, who like to draw,” Lim said. His sisters are aged 3 and 5.
Lim, who is fluent in six programing languages, started using the computer at the age of 2. He has since completed about 20 programing projects.
His father, Lim Thye Chean, a chief technology officer at a local technology firm, also writes iPhone applications.
“Every evening we check the statistics emailed to us (by iTunes) to see who has more downloads,” the older Lim said.
The boy, who enjoys reading books on programing, is in the process of writing another iPhone application — a science fiction game called “Invader Wars.”
