Steve Jobs – How to live before you die, the man behind Apple

The shocking news about the death of Steve Jobs has sent shockwaves around the world. As heartbreaking as his death is it is only fitting that we take a look back at how one man changed technology. Technology which the creative industry has a lot to thank for as without the innovations of Steve Jobs and Apple as a company the creative industry wouldn’t be where it is now.

Steve Jobs was the modern day Thomas Edison. Just as Thomas Edison invented the light bulb and changed the way we looked at things so did the innovations that Steve imagined and produced. It would be appropriate to say he was the world’s greatest marketer and there will never be anyone else like him.
