This final note on the way out, one at which I daresay everyone listening to this radio program will shake their heads.
Yahoo spent $30 million today to buy a news-aggregating app -- Summly, it's called. Pulls the need-to-know stuff from news articles and makes it look nice on your iPhone.

Nick D'Aloisio's 17 now. Rich. And in case you're wondering? Yeah, he totally gets to work at home.
