13-Year-Old CEO Steals the Show At TiECON

An anonymous reader tells us about a 13-year old Silicon Valley CEO with a plan to change the way kids learn chemistry. Yesterday he stole the show at TiECON 2007, the big entrepreneur conference held in Santa Clara, CA. VentureBeat has the story and a video interview. The company's VP of sales is the CEO's sister. She's 11. They're looking for $100K to ramp up production and distribution.

hehehe have you even read that entry

The Egyptian method of multiplication of integers and fractions, documented in the Ahmes Papyrus, was by successive additions and doubling. For instance, to find the product of 13 and 21 one had to double 21 three times, obtaining 2 × 21 = 42, 4 × 21 = 84, 8 × 21 = 168. The full product could then be found by adding the correct terms found in the doubling: 13\times 21 = (1\times 21) + (4\times 21) + (8 \times 21) = 253.

HAHHAHAHAH
