Apple's Co-Founder, Steve Jobs the Visionary dies at 56 years old


"Probably I will just turn up the volume of it. Because, the last few years have reminded me that life is fragile".

Steve Jobs (1955 - 2011) Co-Founder of Apple Inc (56 years)

It was in the morning of 6 Oct 11, I received a news notification on my iPhone that "Apple's co-founder, Steve Jobs died. One of the greatest person ever lived in our time has passed away peacefully following a long battle with cancer. He died on Wednesday, 5 Oct 11.

The visionary that changed lives by introducing portability with style. In 1976, he started off with his best buddy, Steve Wozniak in a garage. He has transformed that garage into Apple, the most valuable company next to Exxon Mobil.

He was ousted from the Apple Inc's board in 1985. Apple's business declined tremendously since.

It was only until his return in 1997 as CEO brings Apple to a new height that many would not have imagined to be possible at all.

"Today, Apple is going to reinvent... the phone". The exact words he said during the release of Apple iPhone. A smartphone so powerful that changed the lives of many. Bringing convenience and technological brilliance to a level that no one could even imagined. Since iPhone, it was the iPad. "And we called it, the iPad". A tablet PC no one thought would be so widely used and popular.

An App That Made My Girlfriend Fallen In Love With Me - Words With Friends

This is a wonderful App that I had never regretted after downloading it to my iPhone. In the beginning, I started off playing with my friends. I kept losing and have very little understanding on what are those DL, TW and DW were. There are actually bonus scrabble blocks with bonus points that would be earned if words are being formed using them.



Well, before I started playing words with friends with my girlfriend, we had very little things in common. We tend to talk about common things such as friends and Movies which always tend to be quite dry.

If I am saying that my relationship are built on Words, it is too exaggerating. What I saying is that it helps during the courtship of my girlfriend to quite a substantial extend. It helps to built a sense of togetherness even we are far apart. We could somehow connect each other with the words being played during our respective turns.

Love aside, for those who loves to interact with people, you can randomly play with anyone around the word. And who knows, the person that the system picked as your opponent could even be somewhere near you.

For kids, this is a fun and enjoyable game. And the best part of all, it is educational. Before playing this game, I don't even know 'Qi' is a word.


When I started playing this iPhone game, there were only a couple friends playing this. But as time goes by, almost everyone is holding on to an iPhone, everyone started playing and asking for a challenge on words.

This game is developed by New Toy Inc.

Try it. Who knows? You may even get a girlfriend with this App.
