These things make it hard to take an article like this seriously. Never mind the complete lack of new information. I really dont understand the hyperbole used when talking about young people and technology. Not too long ago the Summly kid was a genius too. I'm hoping one day we can reserve this kind of language for the likes of John Nash and others like him.

Took you that long? I didn't managed to get past "Forbes" in the URL to stop taking the article seriously. I would be astounded if someone could point me to a Forbes article on technology that isn't pure bottom-of-the-barrel, sub-journalistic trash.

Honestly, I don't encounter many Forbes tech articles. But now that you mention it, if I think back some of the worst ones I've seen were indeed Forbes. I'll know to steer clear in the future.
