Remembering Steve Jobs: "You've got to find what you love"

Apple has posted a video on its homepage today, with footage of Steve Jobs over the years speaking at keynotes and Apple events, showing images of him and the products he created that changed the way we think about and use computers and mobile devices. The video begins with the famous Wayne Gretzky quote that pretty much defines Jobs’ career: “I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.”Tim Cook just posted a letter on Apple’s homepage to pay tribute to the company’s late cofounder, Steve Jobs. Today is the one-year anniversary of Jobs’ death, so Apple updated its front page with a video montage of Jobs in remembrance of his life and passing. The video features pictures and quotes from Jobs during his time as Apple’s CEO and it ends with the following brief message: “His spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.” One year ago today, on October 5, 2011, the tech industry lost a titan, Apple lost one half of its founders, and the world lost a visionary. Steve Jobs — often referred to simply as “Steve” — had finally lost his 8-year battle with a rare form of pancreatic cancer, leaving behind his wife, Laurene Powell Jobs, his children Reed, Erin, Eve and Lisa and his sister, novelist Mona Simpson. Steve died at a young 56 years old.
