Aaron Shwartz


Been reading the coverage about Aaron Shwartz on Techcrunch.com & BoingBoing.net, which lead me to read about the young developers' Bio at Jottit.com (also created my own login at Jottit.com) and on his website.

It seems that while he was pursuing his courses at Stanford, Paul Graham invited him over to apply for the Y Combinator Startups program which eventually lead him to co-found Reddit (although the articles keep saying he was an early developer there).

Aaron has been a developer at a very young age - 13 years and has been contributing to the internet community in various forms. His unfortunate demise due to some form of low phase has come as a shock to many who have been following his work ..
