Former Apple CEO and Pixar CEO Steve Jobs has died, Apple has confirmed. Another great life lost to cancer. We’ve got to beat that damn disease. Apple’s official statement: “Apple has lost a visionary and a creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of you who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.”

Apple has invited readers to email their thoughts, memories and condolences to rememberingsteve [at] Apple [dot] com.

As for me, I’ll remember Jobs by unplugging and sitting down with my family to watch a Pixar movie. Yes, I admire Apple. But I think Pixar was Jobs’ greatest gift to us.
