Goodbye, Hero

by Andrew Johnson October 6, 2011
by Andrew Johnson October 6, 2011

It deeply saddened me to hear Steve Jobs died today. Just as his last final wondrous creation was launched, he passed on, leaving the world a much less magical place. He was a man who profoundly changed my life, even though I never met him.

I hope this is interpreted as the tribute it is intended to be, because it’s the most fitting memorial that I can think of, within my meager power.

EDIT: I had to end this right at midnight because our map server became overwhelmed. Sorry, I would have liked to keep it going longer. All of our apps are free today.
