The birth of the iPhone at Apple under Steve Jobs in 2005-2007
03/26/2014
How Steve Jobs and a very small team of engineers put together the iPhone's various features. At the time in 2005 Job's visualized the transition of the iPod's music features to a device like the smartphone. Also important were all the small details of dialing from the phone book and swiping the phone to open it. The same engineer who worked on the Newton, the touch device which was too early for its time, was assigned the job of putting together the iPhone. Remarkable is how small the team is, how an idea that failed in th Newton coud still be revived, the attention to detail of Jobs, and the secrecy considering the long time invested in development.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
