Youngest Software Executive is Three Years Old

rkt writes " Times of India reports a three year old kid who has been "certified" and recogonized as the "youngest software executive" in the world by organizations like Microsoft, CNN and CNBC. With the news about Comdex not letting in kids below 18, and with Corel mentioning age factor in the EULA, it seems that computer industry is still unaware of how deep computers have penetrated. Computing is no more a symbol of western world, nor are the users always 40 year old executives. Internet has brought about lots of changes, younger customer base is just one of them. "
