1. RIP Steve Jobs: One Man’s
Contribution To Social Media

2. Steve Jobs passed away last month,
but his legacy will live on forever.
Tributes to the famed Apple inventor
are still pouring in around the world.
News agencies covered his death, and
so did thousands of blogs, Facebook
pages and Twitter feeds. This stands as
the ultimate testament to a man that
was one of the founding fathers of
social media. But how did Steve Jobs
change the world?

3. One Man’s Impact on Social Media

4. 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 the
limitations of sitting behind a desk, to
experience social connectivity. That’s
why with his leadership, he produced
three of the world’s technological
marvels – the iPhone, iPad and iPod.

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

6. The far reaches of this decision is
evident in our daily lives. Steve Jobs
did something extraordinary. He
reached into every niche on the
planet, and made it better. Because
that’s really what Apple applications
have done. They’ve given average
people the ability to create, express,
innovate and invent.

7. With this technology there is virtually
nothing that can’t be made more
efficient, fun, dynamic, emotional and
social. Essentially, he gave social
platforms the huge reach that they
have today in our lives.

8. The Future Impact of a Life Well Spent

9. Steve Jobs was the Einstein of modern
technology. A true creator, that
focused on the positive aspects and
impact that progressive technology
can have on our society. He turned our
phones into a social hub, an
entertainment portal, a news source, a
place to have fun and a place to learn.
The future of this technology is bright.

10. We can only imagine how inventors
and innovators will build upon this
incredible base that Steve has left us.

11. One thing is certain – Apple’s
technology is pulling ahead. Thanks to
Steve, it can expect to be involved in a
huge number of innovations that are
on the tech horizon. With technology
like augmented reality on the rise,
maybe we’ll be seeing Steve’s
inventions progress into a whole
different league.

12. That’s one thing mobile technology
doesn’t have – limits. You can’t say the
same for sites like Facebook, Twitter –
or even the invention of the computer.

13. Though Steve Jobs has passed, his
impact on the world will last for
hundreds of years. That’s a legacy that
few people are ever able to achieve.
We were lucky enough to benefit from
such a visionary. He belongs in the hall
of fame, alongside Einstein, Alexander
Graham Bell, Thomas Edison and the
Wright Brothers. Thank you Steve!
