Here’s to the Crazy Ones

While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Steve Jobs recorded this version of the original Think Different commercial, but it was never used. Richard Dreyfuss narrated the version that aired on TV in 1997.

Steve Jobs, 1955 – 2011

Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us 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.

RIP.

New Episodes of Arrested Development (Hopefully)

The cast of Arrested Development was together on stage at the New Yorker Festival this weekend, where it was announced that new episodes of the show were being planned, as well as the long-anticipated film.

And series creator Mitchell Hurwitz said that he is halfway through the screenplay for a reunion film and is “eighty per cent” sure it will happen.
