Apple co-founder Steve Jobs is dead; the news, which broke late yesterday evening, has left me deeply saddened.
We wrote about Steve Job’s resignation in late August, when he wrote “I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know. Unfortunately, that day has come.” Steve has been battling cancer for many years; we knew he wasn’t well, but we had no idea his tragic end would come so soon. His death came just a day after the first Apple release without him; the October 4th announcement of the iPhone 4S.
