Many have said that Apple was one of the only tech companies to never produce a hugely successful social media platform. We disagree completely. Steve was the kind of visionary that thought beyond thelimitations of sitting behind a desk, to experience social connectivity. That’swhy with his leadership, he produced three of the world’s technological marvels – the iPhone, iPad and iPod.

Steve knew that people needed to feelconnected to their communities all the time, which is why he focused hisgenius on mobile technology. And true to that genius, mobile technology is regarded as the purest form of socialinteraction. With mobile technology at the forefront of his thoughts, hepioneered not only a new platform for interaction, but a new way for us to interact with each other.
