Thomas Suarez has two published apps, a startup company and a compelling TED talk under his belt -- all at the tender age of 12.

In a compelling October 22 talk at a TED conference in Manhattan Beach, the Los Angeles student held forth on topics like tech integration in education, app access for all children, and how teachers could best use the classroom's greatest resource -- the students themselves. The video of Suarez's speech was uploaded last week and already has over 400,000 views.

Guys like Steve Jobs aren't created by the media. A rare combination of creative vision, drive, and salesmanship are needed. Like Henry Ford of the past generation, it is also helpful to be a ruthless SOB in matters of business. Be loved by your customers and feared and hated by your competitors.
