I got my first "real" job because I knew how to use a Mac.

I owe my newfound ability to stay organized, in part, to my iPhone.

My children and I have shared hours of fun watching Pixar movies.

For this and so much more, thank you, Steve Jobs.

I wrote Parenting Lessons From Steve Jobs after he stepped down from Apple. In it, I shared some of the insights I gained after watching this speech. I hope you get as much out of his talk as I did.

    That Stanford Commencement Speech should be a ‘must listen’ for every college graduate. I wonder how many blogs out there were created on a mac? 🙂
