Singaporean kid writes iPhone application





Nine-year old Singaporean kid writes an application called Doodle Kids for Apple’s iPhone. Lim, who is in fourth grade, developed the painting software which is originally dedicated to his younger sisters.  Just touch the iPhone’s touchscreen to draw and then shake the phone to clear it.

3g-iphone-1This app has been downloaded over 4,000 times from Apple’s iTunes store in two weeks, the Reuters reported today. That’s all? No. The boy is in the process of writing another iPhone application called “Invader Wars”, a science fiction game.

Ah, yes. He is now fluent in six programing languages and started using the computer at the age of 2. Wow.

    More and more iphone developers coming from singapore. I think the credit has to go to how the developers there are willing to share their experience with others via networking meetings.

    I met bak2u.com CEO in the singtel event and invited me to attend some of the facebook meet up to talk about iphone development. Really useful for noobs like us.
