Hello World

The phrase above has delighted many programmers after their discoveries that their test programs were successful.

We here at Teens in Tech are just as delighted as we launch the official blog for Teens in Tech. I’m Sean Quinn, Community Blogger for Teens in Tech, and I will be reporting both the latest news and information pertaining to Teens in Tech both before and after our service’s official launch.

The Teens Plugged In: Second Annual Teens in Tech Conference sponsored by Hewlett-Packard, Sun Microsystems, Comerica Bank, and Microsoft in the Hewlett-Packard Auditorium in Palo Alto, California, which occurred yesterday, Tuesday, May 12, 2008. This conference was able to spotlight the effect teenagers are making in the technology business as well as advice that came from technological entrepreneurs to teenagers of today. This conference featured the President and CEO of Teens in Tech, Daniel Brusilovsky as well as the Vice President of Operations, Richard Escobedo introducing the company’s vision and plans, while Richard also gave a keynote address. Video of this address as well as further details from the conference will be available soon. For more information on the conference, click here.

Also, we’ll have a new theme coming for the blog very soon. It’s already been picked out, we’re just customizing it to our standards at the moment.

I’d like to close by answering a few common questions below the jump.
