Why Steve Jobs matters


When I think of Steve Jobs, feelings of wonder and absolute awe rush over me. Jobs is without a doubt, the most iconoclastic creative mind of the modern age. If that makes me a fanboy, so be it. If liking Apple Inc. products makes me a fanboy, I’m fine with that too. Jobs is in [...]

Apple has another record quarter, running low on superlatives

Radiation detecting app Tawkon gives Steve Jobs the proverbial finger


Mark my words, you don’t want to get on the wrong side of a bunch of Israeli developers, but that’s just what Steve Jobs, Apple CEO, recently did with his rude and curt “no interest” rejection email to Israeli firm, Tawkon.

It would seem you can’t escape fanboyism in even the most lofty corridors of power.
