Teen Sells App to Yahoo for Millions Daily Business Memo: One of Britain's youngest Internet entrepreneurs has hit the jackpot after selling his top-selling mobile app, Summly, to search giant Yahoo. Nick d'Aloisio, 17, dreamed up the idea for the content-shortening app when he was studying for his exams. Yahoo didn't disclose how much it is paying for Summly, but British newspapers said the deal is worth millions. "Sources familiar with the deal indicated that Nick received almost $30 million for the app," The Daily Telegraph reported. Summly has been downloaded about 1 million times since its launch last year. The app works by condensing content so readers on mobile devices can scroll through information more quickly, which is useful for small screens. "I would have never imagined being in this position so suddenly," d'Aloisio wrote on his website, before thanking his family, his school and his venture capitalist backer, Li Ka-Shing, for supporting him. The Summly deal is Yahoo's fifth small acquisition in the past five months.
