Lessons from Steve Jobs' life

19 October 2011

I happened to be at the Apple Store when I learned that Steve Jobs had passed away. It made me very sad; I was actually a little surprised by the depth of my emotions.

Like virtually every other Apple user, I love my Apple products. And I appreciate that Steve Jobs had a direct, positive impact on my life. But as I read some of the many articles about him, I took inspiration from contemplating the larger implications of his contributions.

I’ve been wanting to write about that here, but haven’t taken the time to craft something. And now I don’t need to, because the wonderful organizer and blogger, Jeri Dansky, already did it. She created a wonderful blog post about Steve Jobs that adds her insights to snippets from some of the stories she read about him shortly after his death. It’s well worth a read.

Thank you, Jeri!!
