Steve, you will be missed

Steve's death has been affecting me more than I thought. In fact, when he announced the news, I was surprised, although I expected. As I watched the tribute to Steve Jobs of Apple in Cupertino, I could not help feeling immensely sad to get excited about and my eyes almost filled with tears. How can it affect the death of a man she never met? A man who, personally, I did not like anything.

For a long time been a big fan of Steve Jobs, though he respected the work he performed. It is true that I do not like the man finished as a human being. I think Jobs was a very stern man, a little dictator, a man somewhat selfish and egocentric, apparently had little regard for the feelings of others.

I remember an article I read several years ago about the return of Steve Jobs at Apple was mentioned in the story of how removed the company's philanthropic program, one of the first things he did when he returned in 1997. As a passionate user of Windows at that time and with great respect for Bill Gates's participation in charity, I thought Steve Jobs was just what I always thought: a big ass (excuse my sincerity).

When Steve Jobs introduced the first version of iPhone in 2007, I realized that was the device that had been waiting and no doubt change the world.

Until recently I was a harsh critic of Apple and Steve Jobs (and many others) because I did not understand the philosophy of a company in which the user had no control, however over time I began to get another point of view, trying to understand and get into your vision. All that said, I consider myself a fan but I do not agree with everything Apple does and I can criticize their actions because I feel free to do so.

Who do I thank? ... A Steve Jobs of course. Never met the man but I feel I owe a lot. I have been able to create a profitable business that is based on unique products that he created, in addition to giving me the inspiration for it. Now the blog works very well, and that is the inspiration behind my values. Steve Jobs allowed me to be where I am, therefore I will always be grateful and hope that in the coming years continue to influence and inspire the world as it did me.

So begins the official biography of Steve Jobs:

"The people crazy enough to think they can change the world are those that change."
