I'm confused - the article doesn't mention an angel investment at all.

Very cool--I'm jealous of what a great environment teenagers have for programming today. When I was 13 I was hacking up QBasic games I downloaded from local bulletin boards. A teenager today can publish Android apps to impress their friends and make some spending money!

It's a soundboard. Plenty of young teenagers have made much better and more useful things.

I'm surprised no one's asked yet -- how did he obtain the samples of dinosaur sounds?
