App development/internships

Richard is up to some pretty cool things these days. He developed an app which you can download on Windows phones. It was approved by windows and he has had over 3500 downloads of it! Pretty sweet. It's an Advanced music player. Some of the awesome features:
1) To pause the music, simply turn your phone upside down (screen touching table/platform), to resume the music you flip it back over
2) To change songs, just shake the phone and it will randomly select a new one (you are also able to scroll through and choose a different song manually)
3) Changes background colors with each song.

He is starting 2 internships as well. The first one is at a place called appible, which develops apps. He is doing really well there and they are impressed with how fast he has done the project they assigned him. (It's a live wallpaper). The second internship is for the BYU-I bookstore. He is working on various projects for their website (employee website, not customer website). Currently he is developing a program that helps with inventory.
