Apples-Steve Jobs Dies at age 56

Today Apples Steve Jobs Dies at age 56 from pancreatic cancer. The loss of Steve Jobs is almost immeasurable. It’s nearly impossible to imagine a world without Macs, iPods, iTunes, iPhones and more recently, the hugely popular iPad. Its hard to think of anyone else how could have transformed the music and movie industries the way Steve Jobs did. There are few who could transform the world for some many in such a short time. As one friend posted on her facebook status from her iPhone, “major distirbance in the force” or the more concise status update from another friend “iSad.” RIP Steve Jobs, the man with the gift of knowing what people wanted and creating it before anyone ever knew about something that once they had, they felt as though they could not live wihtout.
