R.I.P Steve Jobs. The world would be very different today had it not been for his innovation.

And we most likely wouldn't have had Pixar, they way we know it today.

I'm trying really hard to not +rep Will.15. Really, really hard...
It is sad, though. Who knows what more he could have done with just ten or fifteen more years.

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."

I found out about Steve's passing on my iPhone. How many people will be saying the same thing? It's incredible to realize that this man will forever remain in our lives, whether you have an iPhone, or use iTunes, or listen to your iPod. What an amazing human being.
R.I.P. Steve Jobs

A few people get to make the kind of impact Steve Jobs made to the world. I mean, I'm typing this on my ipad, my macbook pro in the background, iphone in my pocket and my ipod under my pillow at home. And who would believe someone in America would have enthusiasts all the way in the heart of Africa. All i can say is RIP Steve Jobs

RIP Steve Jobs
I was wondering how he died...
This was inevitable: Sony working to make a biopic about Steve Jobs

Sad as it is to say, from the moment that it was announced that Apple CEO Steve Jobs had died, you know that movie studios were doing their ever-loving best to try and start making a movie about his life. Now it looks like Sony has crossed that line first.
"Deadline" is reporting that the studio is currently in the midst of making a deal to buy the rights to the upcoming non-fiction book Steve Jobs, with the intention of turning the story into a movie. The book is being written by Walter Isaacson, who is the managing editor at Time Magazine and the former chairman of CNN. The book was originally going to debut on November 21st, but has since been pushed up to October 24th in light of recent events. Isaacson compiled the project together from 40 interviews with Jobs and over 100 others with his friends, family and co-workers and tells the story of how he built the company from the bottom up, turning it into one of the biggest technology companies in the world. The writer's previous biographies include Henry Kissinger, Benjamin Franklin and Albert Einstein. Jobs was previously portrayed by Noah Wyle in the made-for-TV movie Pirates of Silicon Valley.
I find it strange that Sony would be the company ahead of the game if not only because their films are typically riddled with Sony Vaio laptops and little else. In fact, while working on this story I keep flashing back to when I first saw The Social Network and during the scene in which Andrew Garfield destroys Jesse Eisenberg's computer I thought to myself, "That is the only Apple computer in this movie." But let's get on to the real business at hand, shall we? Who do you think would be the perfect actor to portray Steve Jobs in a movie? Who do you think should direct?
I guess you could say his death was to... Zune. :(

he gave us itunes, ipods, and podcasts ...
either way, tragic no matter who one is who dies so young.
I was pleased to read an article not too long ago discussing the ideas and visions Mr. Jobs laid out in detail to continue moving Apple forward in preparation of his passing.
Mr. Jobs changed the world. Some claim he is a modern-day Edison or Ford.
Regardless, he was a brilliant man who loved his family and will be missed.
RIP.
