The Youngest Data Center Entrepreneur

A young blogger and aspiring data center professional shows an early flair for blog monetization.

The InnerLayer, the corporate blog for SoftLayer, likes to spread the blogging duties around and has featured posts by 28 different employees. Today's featured blogger is Jonathan Jones, the 10-year-old son of CFO Mike Jones. He provides a young person's perspective on the data center industry, and made sure to include a shout-out to CEO Lance Crosby:

Lance said if I wrote in my blog that he was the greatest CEO ever, he would give me $50. Lance, you are the greatest CEO ever. Fork over the dough.

Jonathan has already made more money blogging than a large number of aspiring probloggers.
