Be at peace, Steve Jobs

Foreword

On Oct 6 2011 (Beijing Time), former Apple CEO Steve Jobs said goodbye to this world for ever at age of 56.As theApple said: we lost a great mentor, a great master who has changed the world a lot in many means. For such a man, we should not say too much but a good wish that he would be at peace in the another world. So comes this article, to remember and pray for the most successful and most amazing entrepreneur.

First impression

I did not know or learn about Steve Jobs until 2006, my sophomore year in college. I read his cemencement address <Stay hungry, stay foolish> delivered at Standford University on 12 June 2005. The speech encouraged me a lot at that time and, even today I still keep this 'stay hungry, stay foolish' as my oath and use it to encourage myself from time to time. After appreciating his speech, I learned something about this extraordinary man and the outstanding companies led by him: Apple and Pixar. As a student, I did not have a chance to use products from Apple. But I did watch movies produced by Pixar Animation and God honest truth was that I loved them so much.

Came to know

After that, I keep reading news about products of Apple, movies from Pixar and Steve Jobs, these two years after graduation in particular. I work as a mobile developer after graduation focusing on Android platform, so each piece of news about Steve Jobs and products of Apple get my attentions. And, of course, I come to know more and more about Steve Jobs.

Be at peace

God sent such a great man to change the world and create so many excellent products for us in 1955, but, unfortunately, called him back in such a hurry which is not a easy thing to accept for people. Anyway, he has changed the world and leave many great devices, innovations and excellent ideas behind. There are no pities.

Thanks for coming, Jobs.

Goodbye Jobs, be at peace.
