At the 1 minute mark he says "some other.. form.. of documentation.. which I
don't know what that is". So either he misspoke, or he didn't actually even
develop that original app.

The video isn't made by the Summly founder. It's just a random person

I used automatic summarization to try to reduce the article to a pithy tweet
and ended up with:

"Fuck, I don't know. And what's with Bezos investing in BusinessInsider? And
what is Amazon's business plan anyway? And why does Apple's stock keep
dropping whenever it gains market share?"

_And what's with Bezos investing in BusinessInsider?_

For peanuts they more or less buy good coverage in a widely read news site. A
certain VC fund also invested in them and PandoDaily. It's a great investment,
even if Business Insider goes kaput 2 years from now.

I just read the whole article, and I still don't know why Yahoo! bought
Summly.

I guess it has something to do with IP. The way I understood it was that the
company Summly licenced the summarisation algorithm was selling it to Yahoo!,
but they couldn't do that because Summly was using it, too. So, to get them
out of the way, Yahoo! bought them and shut them down.
