Steve Jobs Questions:


1.  Genius, legacy, imaginative, fun and not a good friend.

He was a genius because he was the first to come up with a computer that could actually type, write send emails, but while he was on his way of creating new innovations and inventing a new legacy, he hurt some of his close associates along the way and would only have them around if he truly needed their assistance.

2. He was associated with pixar, itunes and pc

3. Steve Jobs was different from Bill Gates because he was more imaginative and took more risks. Steve jobs company excelled more because he had better taste, according to Bill Gates.

4. They said he wasn't a very "good" friend. Some sources said he would back stab everyone that came into his path and only used people he needed. If he no longer needed them, then he would just throw them away.

5. Steve Jobs took more risks than others and looked outside the box.

6. He revolutionized Film making, music, computers and phones.

7. I do believe Steve Jobs had a huge impact like the film described because he reshaped how we as a world use technology in almost every aspect

8. I use an apple computer every time I go home and finish my homework. I also use it when I listen to my ipod. Almost every one of my friends have an ipod

Hey, this is my first blog posting. I am new to blogging and I am writing this as we speak as a part of my Journalism class at Sacramento Charter High School. I'm going to start posting my assignments to this blog for now on. But, until I start posting new blogs, I'll tell you a little about myself:

I love writing poetry. I'm not just a one concept type of person, I like to write about anything that crosses my path. I plan to go to UCLA college after I graduate and major in creative writing or public speaking.

I like music, but I don't play anything myself.

I'm an adrenaline junky, I love heights, rock climbing, bungee jumping and gymnastics

I enjoy being with animals and taking care of them. I love being with family and friends
