A week ago the tech world was shocked through the sudden announcement of Steve Job's departure from Apple.�I mean, here's guy who left indelible marks in virtually every corner of the profession, from computer systems, to audio players, to pills and much more.
Therefore it is no real surprise that Apple fans were deeply impacted by this news. Some composed blogs wanting him the very best of health. Others were more elegiac using their tone, sounding sometimes as though writing an obituary. (He's alive, men!)

But one Apple enthusiast, Frederick Tame, made the decision to behave more creative...something outdoors this area. Like a runner and tech enthusiast, he made the decision to pre-plan an Apple logo design using RunKeeper, a Gps navigation-enabled apple iphone application. Along the way, he trotted out 13-miles, or about the size of one half-marathon.
"Getting an apple iphone really has transformed my existence within Tokyo, japan," he creates in the blog. "This means I'm able to go anywhere without becoming lost, I've my data beside me whatsoever occasions, I am potentially in contact with 1000's of buddies and family people all over the world whatsoever occasions, and that i get access to any information I should do what I have to do. Although I am sure this could create a large difference home within the United kingdom, within Japan it's just like a lifeline (even much more now it may warn me when an earthquake is going to hit)."
The run itself required him two hrs, traveling at in regards to a 7:30 per mile pace. Mind to his "Art of Running" blog�to see much more of his work produced via RunKeeper. Other pieces include Hello Cat, the Google+ logo design and, topping all of them, quite a convincing�baby elephant.
It sure beats anything I have completed in MS Fresh paint.
