Steve Jobs, Apple's Former Chairman & CEO (1955-2011)
Steve Jobs is dead. The Apple chairman and former CEO who made personal computers, smartphones, tablets, and digital animation mass-market products passed away today. We’re going to miss him.
A crowd gathered outside Apple’s Cupertino, California headquarters Wednesday evening, according to tech blogger Robert Scoble. “One lady told me she just wanted to pay her respects,” Scoble notes. Apple posted a web page that told mourners they could email their thoughts and condolences to rememberingsteve@apple.com.
Within hours of Jobs’s death, Facebook users created over thirty “RIP Steve Jobs” Facebook pages memorializing the tech visionary’s life. And on Twitter, “RIP Steve Jobs” is the top trending topic worldwide as of this writing.
Steven P. Jobs passed away today; October 5th, 2011, after a long struggle with pancreatic cancer. He was just 56 years old. We mourn his passing, and wish his family the very best.
