And for GoodReader users, good news! A new version released yesterday.

Enterprise users of GoodReader for Good include Bank of New Zealand, wireless equipment maker Rohde & Schwarz, global insurer JLT, and many, many more. However, in 2012 Selukoff created a special secure version called GoodReader for Good that is one of the most popular of the many 3 rd-party apps integrated into the Good platform. GoodReader and Selukoff’s company, Good.iWare, are separate from Good Technology, which BlackBerry acquired last fall. (Before I continue, let me clear up any possible confusion. “My entire career has been a pure set of accidents,” said Selukoff in a recent conversation at BlackBerry’s Silicon Valley office. And while Google was going IPO in 2004 making Brin an instant billionaire, Selukoff was scraping by in Moscow, running a factory manufacturing compact discs. While Brin was writing the code with Larry Page for what became the Google search engine, Selukoff was the tour manager for a Russian boy band. While Brin was studying computer science at Stanford, Selukoff was selling used imported BMWs to newly-capitalist Russians. While Brin grew up in the 80s with easy access to desktop PCs, Selukoff learned programming from library books. with his family when he was 6 years old and took a now-familiar immigrant wunderkind route to tech stardom, Selukoff’s success not only came much later, but almost never happened. But unlike the Google co-founder, who arrived in the U.S.

That happens to be the same age as another successful Russian-born high-tech entrepreneur residing in the Silicon Valley, Sergey Brin.

Yuri Selukoff, the creator of the popular PDF rea der app for iPhone and iPad, GoodReader, is 42.
