Chris Thorpe on Steve Jobs
A beautiful piece:
We’re in the post-PC era now. It’s all about user centricity, the technology being subservient to the user, the things we make being about their needs, even before thy can articulate them. That is the most incredible legacy for him. We can’t squander that. Ship more things that are bent around the needs and desires of the people who use them. If you don’t, you’re doing it wrong, and you’re doing his memory a disservice.
I never get upset about famous people dying. It’s none of my business, I always think. I didn’t know them. And yet today, I find myself feeling sad. Very sad indeed.
