Jobs’ Letter of Resignation







CUPERTINO, Calif.–August 24, 2011–

To the Apple Board of Directors and the Apple Community:

I have always said if there ever came a day when I could no longer meet my duties and expectations as Apple’s CEO, I would be the first to let you know.

Unfortunately, that day has come.

I hereby resign as CEO of Apple. I would like to serve, if the Board sees fit, as Chairman of the Board, director and Apple employee.

As far as my successor goes, I strongly recommend that we execute our succession plan and name Tim Cook as CEO of Apple.

I believe Apple’s brightest and most innovative days are ahead of it. And I look forward to watching and contributing to its success in a new role.

I have made some of the best friends of my life at Apple, and I thank you all for the many years of being able to work alongside you.

Steve


iMessage – A BlackBerry Messenger Killer?

Posted by kunal on 3:16 AM comments (0)


Fans of Instant Messaging, rejoice, as iOS 5 will come with its very own instant messenger. The new messenger, called iMessage, is clearly targeted at RIM’s BlackBerry Messenger, and will work over both 3G and WiFi.
According to Apple, iMessage will bring the functionality of iPhone messaging to all iOS devices, and will be built directly into the Messages app. iMessage will offer much more than instant messaging, as it will allow users to also send messages, photos, videos, or contact information to other iOS 5 users – all using encrypted connections, to please IT organizations of Apple’s corporate customers.
Just like like BlackBerry Messenger, iMessage supports delivery and read receipts, and typing indication, to let you know if/when the person you are chatting with has received your message and if he/she is typing back. But iMessage offers one additional feature over its BlackBerry counterpart: iMessage is aware of which device you are using, and messages are automatically pushed to the correct device. For instance, a conversation started on an iPad can be continued on an iPhone if necessary.
                                                    iMessage App
If successful, the app will help Apple ‘lock in’ its customers – especially enterprise customers – on its own instant messaging network, just like what RIM did with BlackBerry Messenger. In other words, Apple is again going after RIM, and will use iMessage as a Trojan horse to sell more iPhones and iPads to IT organizations across the globe.
We’re sincerely hoping that iMessage will also be compatible with open Instant Messaging networks, such as Google Talk, just like the Mail app is able to pull messages from Gmail natively – otherwise, we’re not convinced that another ‘closed garden’ instant messaging network would add much value to non-corporate iOS devices users.

I'm More Than Just An Option...


I`m very confused as dis is my 1st article on a blog. So I decided to
write sumthing that had occupied vry Imp place in my heart & it alwayz will.
Even though we don't talk anymore, I will never forget our memories. I
want to cherish that past beautiful moments.
"1st dates are awkward. 1st kisses are heavenly. 1st loves
 irreplaceable. 1st heartbreaks are unforgettable."
She was perfect, beautiful & flawless. Long thick brown hair. She
wasn’t perfect & I was fooled.
She isn't supposed to be like those other gals. She's better than
them. Or so i thought.
When we first met I just knew I had found the girl  of my dreams.She
was gorgeous. It never quite hit me that she was too good to be true
until I found out otherwise.I made her my sun and my world revolved
around her.
Love isn't something you choose, It's something that takes over you

Since we first got together she had male friends and why shouldnt she?
She was a grown independent girl and I trusted her. Even though we
didnt hold hands in the street and when i said 'I love you' her reply
was 'I know u do'. So what she had missed a couple of dates or didnt
answer her phone some nights. I mean she had to have a life too. It
was okay she missed my birthday twice and I was the only one who was
very excited abt everything may it b her b`day or valentie`s day. I
loved her.
I heard that my frnd was dating her. How could he be in love with the
girl who loved me. I mean she never said it but I knew she did. She
had to as much as I loved her. Thats when I realized I had been in
love by myself.
Things went downhill after that. I never spoke of the incident but it
consumed me and made me open my eyes to just how much she didnt care,
She still never said I love u. I still never met any of her friends. I
still was playing the fool. Eventually i called her up one day to tell
her it was over and all she said was 'okay'. I never heard from her
again.

I was devastated. Hurt because the girl I loved and was faithful to
never saw me in the same way. Mad she let me believe I was the only
one recieving her affection. Feeling stupid for making her my all and
i was just some guy she was seeing. But I had learned a hard lesson.
Never give more then u recieve.
