Steve Jobs holding the iPhone |
In life there is death but Steve Jobs will live on forever
in his legacy that is Apple. Steve Jobs has given the world access all
areas to the internet and it wonders through the development of the iPods, iPads,
Macs and iPhones. I remember having the 1st generation of the iPod
touch glued to my hand 24/7, the app’s that helped me achieve correct spelling,
learn German and even those that were quite frankly useless such as finding the
nearest McDonalds’ or even those several weather apps that always have it
wrong. The Apple technology available has become some of our best sidekicks and
we become reliant upon them. They hold our photographic memories; the songs
that make us see daylight on a gloomy day and allow us to access the most
bizarre of apps.
It’s questionable whether or not Jobs could have done much
more with his time at Apple by developing technologies that help benefit the
military, government and health care, yet most if not all industries should
have access to Apple products because they allow the freedom to be mobile yet
still have all the information needed, provided. They also could benefit from
many apps available. However, it clear that many apps are unnecessary and that
the technology has all of a sudden got out of hand with many people developing
apps that could harm us such as those that hack other peoples wireless or those
that can hack into people passwords. Whilst those choose to do this it shows
that many people have forgotten what Apple technology was all about as ‘Sales
have started to fall, though, as more people carry their music on smart phones,
which is why the iPod Touch is not just a music player but a games machine, web
browser and communications device’ suggested by Shane Richmond (Telegraph
article).
I would be a hypocrite if I told you that I haven’t used
iPod’s for just music alone but it was vital to make that development for
technology to advance and to keep Apple alive in business. With access all
areas to the internet, it’s the Apple products that begin our wonder into the
world of network media without having to be stuck in an office desk in front of
a computer. iBelieve that Apple has made the internet far more appealing and
accessible through the gadgets they have created.
Our freedom to browse, use pointless applications and
explore have been made possible by the man, Steve Jobs who will always be known
to me and many others as the Sir Isaac Newton of the 21st century.
RIP Steve Jobs (1955-2011)
