Stories about Steve Jobs

Wednesday, October 3, 2012

How do we remember someone? Well, basically almost only through stories and storytelling. These days, people are talking a lot about Steve Jobs, who died October 5, 2011 in Palo Alto. Forbes.com has a wonderful story: Untold Stories About Steve Jobs: Friends and Colleagues Share Their Memories.

We know a lot about Steve Jobs, thanks to his willingness in the last years of his life to share stories with his biographer about what drove him to co-found Apple Inc. and reinvent the PC, music players, phones and tablets. But there are plenty of “Steve” stories that you haven’t heard around, and a year after Jobs’ death on Oct. 5 at the age of 56, a few friends and colleagues shared their memories of the technology industry’s most notable luminary.

Definitely a very entertaining read.
