                                              STEVEN PAUL JOBS
( The beginning)
                                          FEB 24, 1955 – OCT 5, 2011   

Known as  a businessman, a visionary, and a creative genius. Yet he is recognized for being the pioneer of the personal computer. Jobs changed the world of communication and technology. In the late1970’s, Jobs was the co-founder of Apple computers. Jobs started his business out of his parent’s garage. After a few years and clashes with the CEO he helped hire, Jobs was fired from the company he founded in1985. However, this did not deter Jobs, he founded NeXT Company that same year. This workstation was advanced and designed for the educational sector, but was too costly. Being a businessman in 1986 Jobs purchased The Graphic Group, which we now know as Pixar. By 1996 Apple brought NeXT and by late 1996 Jobs was back at Apple and CEO by 2000.  In 2001 he launched the iPod, which offered 1,000 songs.  In 2007 he introduced the iPhone touch screen and later that year the Apple App Store. By 2011, Apple had become the second largest company in the United States. Thanks to his brilliance we now have the social media. Without the pioneer of the personal computer, we could still be using a typewriter. His last invention marketed to the public is the iPhone 4S, however that doesn't mean it was his last invention. It is not just a phone it is a; personal computer, calculator, radio, camera, video viewer recorder and much more. With this new phone you can stay connected to the internet or up load and update your facebook page instantly.
