A nine 9 year old Schoolboy is iPhone whizz

Feb. 12 - Nine-year-old computer programmer creates iPhone application that has been downloaded over 150,000 times.

Lim Ding Wen is like any other child living in Singapore. He goes to school, does his homework and plays on the computer. But Lim is a boy with a difference. He's the youngest programmer in the island city, and perhaps the world. Jim Drury reports. SOUNDBITES: Lim Ding Wen Lim Thye Chean

@skylar15123 Yes you do. There's a lot of people going into programming at young age these days. In fact, there's always been a large presence of young programmers.

It's a shame because those developers were never noticed because platforms like the iPhone and iPod Touch were non-existent when they were this age.

Don't listen to the haters, this is special because you don't see 9 year olds who can do this often.
