Sorry, Tim. You guys were awesome that day.


Hours before Apple event, I was mocking on Twitter about the event & Tim Cook.

Cook "I.. I cannot do it."
Jobs "Listen. Look at my eyes. You. Can. Do. The. Keynote."
Cook "I don't know.."

Minutes before on stage, Tim Cook got message from the whole family "We support you. Our pray with you!"
(link)

"What do you expect on Apple's event tomorrow?"
"Smooth keynote from Tim Cook."
(link)

Apple event without Steve Jobs. Need more popcorn or sans-popcorn?
(link)

Cook on phone "Cannot sleep.."
Jobs "Relax. Just count those iOS apps jumping over the fence."
Cook "Too many"
Jobs "Right. webOS apps then"
(link)

Cook "Sorry.. I can't.."
Jobs "Dammit, Tim! Fine! I'll be on stage!"
(link)

But then..
Yet somehow, I sense chaos behind this Apple event.
(link)

I didn't know exactly about what.
I've been watching Apple keynotes for years and by reading the live blog & pictures, I sense something is not quite right.

Today, Steve Jobs passed away. Now I know it was not chaos back then. It was tension in that Apple Event. They knew that Steve Jobs, their dearest mentor, guru, father, friend was near to death. Yet they managed to continue the keynote without any significant glitch. Smooth.

I feel bad. Then I read Robert Scoble's in his Google+.

Dear Tim Cook.

I gave you a tough time today. I thought you didn't come up to some imaginary bar I held in my head. I didn't get why you didn't come out with bigger news. I didn't get why everyone in my network was telling me about the big things that were planned that didn't come out.

Now we know.

Today I feel guilty because I gave you a tough time about your first press conference. Now that I know what was going on behind the scenes I owe you an apology. I'm sorry, I owe you and your team one.

My heart is with you during this tough time.

So my apology to Tim Cook & team. You guys were awesome that day. It was the best farewell for Steve Jobs. And thanks for the iPhone 4S. The iPhone For Steve.

The First Time I Met Apple Macintosh








April 14, 1986 was the first time I met Apple Macintosh & fell in love the day after.

iRIP Steve Jobs


1955 - 2011

"When Walt Disney died, the inspiration light was dimming that day. Then gone."
Now I can feel you, dad.

And Apple, you are just entering a new era. Brace yourself.

Steve Jobs Pernah ke Bali?

From September 9 Apple Special Event "Let's Rock" keynote video.




OK.
Let's assume this is Steve Job's new iPod nano.
Let's assume this is his photos library.
