T for two

I heard the news today (oh boy) about some British kid from London, little more than an embryo, who has invented a 'thing' and sold it to Yeeha for one billion dollars, at least. I heard this kid on the Simon Mayo show some months ago talking about his invention - Summly - and was fascinated and annoyed in equal measure by the way he spoke. I've thought about him, well the way he spoke, several times since for various reasons.

Anyway, he was on the radio again as the news broke about him selling his invention ... it went something like this "Yah, I thought there must be a bedder way of disdilling informaysharn in news ardiculls so I creaded an abblicaysharn, develobing pro-do-cols, blahdy blahdy blah ... not one hard 'T' in the whole 'ardicul'. Fascinayding.

And no, I'm not jealous of him being a squillionaire while still putting lego on his birthday list. Whadever!
