End of line: Steve Jobs dies at 56
Posted by Eliot Weinstein on October 5, 2011
Major media outlets are reporting that Steve Jobs, co-founder and former CEO of Apple, has died at age 56.
There is very little that I can add to the tributes and obituaries that have already been published. Although Jobs himself denied that technology has the power to substantively change the world, this claim, coming from Jobs, is self-refuting. We are living today in a world fundamentally shaped by the innovations Steve Jobs pioneered in the fields of computing, animation, consumer electronics, and personal media consumption.
Here is a video of Jobs giving a moving and inspirational commencement speech at Stanford University.
