There never has been a CEO who put so much passion and heart into his creation. Face it, without Steve Jobs and Apple, there would be no Angry Birds, one of the most popular app downloads in iOS. I'm going to miss the way he talks. Especially in his keynotes.
I actually shed a few tears, though I hardly knew the guy. Looking at my Macbook Pro I feel like hugging it [awkward]. I found this really nice wallpaper of the Apple logo, but the bite resembles Steve's silhouetted face. It's the best I could do as a tribute.

This is just a tragedy for the technology world.
I listen to my trusty iPod Nano as a tribute.
He was called the "Thomas Edison of the 21st Century".
So many people paying condolences, including celebrities, IT figures and politicians (i.e. Barack Obama, Mark Zuckerburg, Bill Gates, Steve Wozniak, even Australia's own PM, Julia Gillard)

This came as quite a shock, and I wasn't even a big Apple fan. I hope he rests in peace; he more than deserves that.

Frankly, I never cared for Apple.
However, Jobs is one of Pixar's three founding fathers so, I'm very saddened. :C

This is terribly sad news for the entire world. I hear that he had been sick for quite a while, though, so at least he is out of pain now. It's always terrible when someone who changed the world so profoundly meets an untimely end. May he rest in peace.

I'm not much into Apple, but such a shame.
May he rest in peace.

It seems unreal. He was only 56. I hate cancer. I'm submitting my thoughts and pictures to the Steve Jobs living memorial wall via [email protected]. Title is subject line, add the photo as attachment, and body is where you say what's on your mind.

Update: Steve Jobs has died from respiratory arrest
Even though it doesn't change anything, I thought you should all know.

It took me a long while to think of what I wanted to say about this as someone who never really paid a whole lot of attention to Steve specifically. I do not like Apple at all, but I can say with good heart that I never allowed myself to hate Steve by extension. I never expected him to die so quickly after leaving the company. It did come as a bit of a shock, but I suppose cancer can do that.
I suppose I'm not really sure what to say. It's... sad.
