World will miss the ‘i’ in the iPod, iPhone and the iPad !

Steve Jobs, the apple co-founder is no more.  The IT world has suddenly gone blank altogether with the absence of a legend who turned the rules of the IT business. Millions of fans of the iPod, iPhone and the iPad are suddenly missing the “i” in the iPod, iPhone and the iPad.  When Steve launched the iPad2 he was aware of the fact that he has very little time and the world too knew that he has gone weak. But nobody ever imagined such a scenario to come so soon. Apple , a company which drives quality beyond everything else is at a great loss.

Steve had also inspired millions of businessmen, techies, management students through his inspiration speeches like the one below which he gave in 2005 at the Stanford University.

A Speech from Steve Jobs which continues to inspire millions around the Globe.

What made Steve Jobs so special was his interest and energy in making products which are most user friendly. The focus was on the User Interface and thus the user of the product was put ahead of everything else. In the end the customers usually fell in love with the products, whether its the iPod , iPhone or the iPad or the Apple Macbook Air. Steve wanted every user to feel the “i” in the iPad, iPhone or the iPod and made a product which everybody would be proud to own.

Steve also had that magic to bring humor in his speeches by calling out the names of the competitors  and thus keeping the audience engaged. A great orator, thinker, innovator, management guru and a leader is no more.  Even though Steve is no more, the ‘i’ and his speeches will continue to inspire our future generations for hundreds of years. My condolences to Steve and his family members and the Apple team and fans.
