A Bushel of Apple.

Earlier this month, the world lost a man who has been called a visionary, a revolution, and a genius.  Although it may be overdue, I feel that I must post a blog paying homage to the stranger who changed how I view technology, social media, music, and many other areas I care so deeply about.

I got my first MacBook in 2007, the summer after I graduated high school.  I dubbed her 'Macy' and although it may be silly, I loved that computer.  Macy was my college companion and sat on my lap through so many sleepless nights.  I was hooked.  Countless iPods, an iPad, an iPhone, and a MacBook Pro later, I cannot belitte the role Apple has played in cultivating my love for technology.  Even with this blog, every letter has been typed on a Mac, every picture edited in iPhoto, and every post created in Safari.  Apple creates products perfected in every way, seemlessly designed, and made to change your life.

RIP Steve Jobs

My favorite article I read after his death:
