RIP

I'm sure everyone has heard that Steve Jobs passed away today. I got the alert from my Associate Press app and it made me really sad to hear the news. I didn't know him, but from what I do know, he has done some amazing things. Apple obviously, but Pixar as well. This man has had many visions and they all seemed to pan out really well. I really hope that everyone will be ok without him. I'm sure he will be truly missed. I know as a consumer he will be missed. RIP in Steve Jobs.

Book of Jobs

The Steve Jobs biography, iSteve: The Book of Jobs has started to hit Amazon for presale and it’s already a best seller. It still has 9 months to go before its release! That’s insane. The set release date is March 6, 2012. I’m glad that the cover picture is only temporary because it looks a little silly. I’m still interested in reading the book and my hopes are still high for many chapters about his Pixar days.

From bestselling author Walter Isaacson comes the landmark biography of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. In iSteve: The Book of Jobs, Isaacson provides an extraordinary account of Jobs’ professional and personal life.

Drawn from three years of exclusive and unprecedented interviews Isaacson has conducted with Jobs as well as extensive interviews with Jobs’ family members, key colleagues from Apple and its competitors, iSteve is the definitive portrait of the greatest innovator of his generation.

Book of Jobs

I’m not going to lie, I’m a little excited by this. Steve Jobs has authorized a biography to be written about him. It will be called iSteve: The Book of Jobs. I might be excited because he was one of the founders of Pixar and there will probably be some really good stuff in there about the first days of Pixar. Otherwise, I might skip the rest unless it’s super interesting. Biographer, Walter Isaacson will be writing the biography, which is kind of awesome because he’s written about Einstein and Ben Franklin and many others so he knows what he’s doing. I’m sure the book will focus on Apple more than anything else, but I will definitely read those chapters about his days at Pixar. It’s scheduled to come out next year. I hope this doesn’t mean he has been given a short time to live…. That makes me sad to think about.
