'Don't let your age hold you back' says teen coder Jordan Casey

Jordan Casey has been dubbed "the youngest app developer in Europe" -- and he wants to encourage other young people to get involved in technology.

Casey is a self-taught programmer from Ireland. After buying an HTML handbook aged nine, he created his own Club Penguin fan site. And a few years later, seeking a new challenge, he decided to develop an iPhone app. With the help of a self-forged letter from an 'Apple executive' that he sent his own parents, they duly bought him an Apple Mac -- and his journey as a young entrepreneur started.
