As much as I want to hate on this article with the rest of you guys, I can't. I was expecting a load of "Look! Bobby has a blog with AdSense. How cute." But, grammar aside, it surprised me. It's not just Mark in this list who's made actual money. That Ashley girl has been in business 5 years and employs a parent! Which is a lot more success than (as far as I can tell) the vast majority of HNers. So, yes, I hate things that focus on age. Sure, by most accounts I was a child prodigy and blah blah blah blah. The age-related attention certainly never did me any good. It made me lazy, and vain, and I think I missed out on a lot of opportunities because of it. But whether or not these are teens to "watch," they should be considered a challenge for anyone who's clocking all their time on the next revolution in social bookmarking or social network messaging shopping kablooey. Reality check: Ashley makes enough money to employ herself, a parent, and apparently friends, too... off a site for free MySpace layouts. That should tell us all something.
