Apple has announced the  death of Steve Jobs from cancer, and many of us are having a deep, personal, emotional reaction. Here is a look at tributes by women who say Jobs's vision and the products and companies he created changed their lives:

"I saw my first iPhone at a blogging conference. And my first iPad. In my mind, blogging and Steve Jobs are inextricably linked. And tonight the blogosphere  says farewell to Steve Jobs..."
 
by Lisen Stromberg
 
     "The business press, the general press, the blogosphere, and just about everybody else has waxed poetic about the “greatest CEO of all time” saying that this “boy wonder” has shaped the very nature of our lives with his genius. 
     "It’s all true, but here in Palo Alto, Steve Jobs isn’t just an icon, he’s also the guy who lives down the street...."
 
by Melissa Ford
 
"Josh called with the news, 15 minutes from home, while we were watching Harry Potter.  “Keep him up,” he told me.  'Wait for me to get there...' "
 
by Steve Jobs, produced by Stanford University and available on TED.com, recommended by DesiValentine4.
 
On this video, Jobs shares so much wonderful advice, that I don't think this, my favorite quote, is a spoiler: 
 
"Your time is limited so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."
~ Steve Jobs
 
Not a spoiler. More like a gift. Thanks.
