I am currently working on a business start-up. So far the main issue I have had is in describing the nature of the business. You see I have created a new service, which inherently means the creation of a new industry. This creates a problem when I am trying to describe what the business does to people who have no frame of reference for comparison. However, that just changed because of Steve Jobs.
It has recently been announced that the CEO of Apple Steve Jobs has passed away. This is a sad event with wide spread cultural ramifications. The home page of Apple has a picture of Steve Jobs with his name and the dates 1955-2011. Additionally, they have set up a page with an epitaph on their site. That page also contains information for people to contact the company with personal thoughts and memories of Steve Jobs.
Additionally, areas outside of the company have been affected. Every social networking site now has pages dedicated to the memory of Steve Jobs. Web comics such as XKCD and Abstruse Goose have posted memorials. Even sites that are normally satirical such as Some E-cards have included memorial materials on their web site.
This is the service being offered by Pelicat. The chance to have your final message spread across all of your social media applications in order to give a farewell notification to all of your online friends all over the world. Despite the terrible loss of Steve Jobs he is now my best example to others of what my new service provides.
While the loss of Steve Jobs is a sad event, I can’t help thinking that it is rather profound that even in his passing he is helping others like myself to push forward with innovative new concepts and services. Hopefully we will all be able to continue following his example of creativity far into the future.
