Kid gets the wonderReady to play with the big
guys
He’s 13
years old and he has created and is selling an iPad app in the same store where
companies like EA, Google, and even Apple itself distribute iPad apps. His app
is ready to go on the first day the product is available. Not a fake app. Not a
junior app. A real honest-to-god iPad app. Imagine a 13-year-old in 1978 who
could produce and sell his own Atari 2600
cartridges.
Somehow I don’t think young Mr. Kaplan sees the iPad as hurting his sense of wonder or entrepreneurism. John Gruber, Daring Fireball: The Kids Are All Right A followup to yesterday's post. Apple Inc. isn't selling the sizzle, they're offering an easier creative path. They know that the more people who make quality applications, the more iPads Apple will sell. It's an natural step. First they sold music because they wanted to sell iPods. Then they sold apps because they wanted to sell iPhones. And now, watch what happens. I wish young Mr. Kaplan the best in the world, and you'd better believe I'll be checking out iChalkboard as soon as I get my iPad up and running.
