..........The demise of Steve Jobs, one of the most innovative and inspiring businessmen of our time, co-founder of Apple who pioneered the personal computer industry. 

 
The Apple website has a famous picture of Mr. Jobs and the following statement:
“Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.”




At a commencement speech in 2005, Mr. Jobs said the following concerning death:

“Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.”

  2. Social network is indeed extremely popular and I don't know what online businesses would do without it. Besides being a way to meet people, it's also a method to promote yourself or your business, which is a revolutionary thing considered the advertising methods that existed only 15 years ago.

  3. Hi Andreea,
    Never would have imagined being able to connect with you, all the way from Romania. Since I was young had always been fascinated with Romania, bits and pieces thru the movies and from magazines, thats about all then!
