When i was 7 years old i saw a man in a black turtleneck and Levi’s standing on a stage talking about a little white box that he said would “change everything” Turns out it did, that device was called the iPod and it changed the way we all listen to music. Many years before that this same man introduced the first computer with a mouse, now you can’t find a computer without one. Only a few years ago he held up a small black device with a touch screen and called it revolutionary, and he was right. That device changed how we all interact with technology and with each other. Steve Jobs was not only a great visionary, but a revolutionary. This man deserves a moment of silence from anyone reading this. Because of his massive effect on the consumer electronics industry you can read this from a device you can fit in your pocket. Nearly every piece of technology you own has a touch of his presence. While many saw him as a dictator over his kingdom of Apple, there is no denying his incredible impact on not only the electronics industry, but the world. Please take a moment to give this man your respect and thoughts.
“Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.” - Steve Jobs
Rest in Peace
