Steve Jobs Transplant & His Secret Life
People from other parts of the world have perceived Silicon Valley as a hub of computer geeks, no pun intended. This southern component of San Franscisco has been pretty much the center of everything high tech for the past decades. But lately, the media at this part of the planet has leaned towards news about Steve Jobs and his health…and why not?
To start with, there’s not much tabloid-ish phenomena going on at Silicon Valley that’s worth the feasting of media. Okay, so there’s the animated Cha Cha dance of Apple co-founder, Mr. Steve Wozniak on Dancing with the Stars. Still, other magnates of the IT industry prefer to be away from public eye. Even the Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, who’s supposed to get ahead of “social networking”, is not that media-prevalent as well. And, when was the last time you heard news about Google execs?
Sure, there are few news-worthy personalities. But generally, people in the IT industry have always been low-key, concentrating more on out-of-the box technological advancements, rather than brewing up some shaking news about themselves.
Like the other big names in the industry, Steve Jobs also steers clear of unnecessary media attention and wants to keep his life as private as possible. He’s not a big fan of interviews. Digging up information about his colorful past, as well as his future plans, is up to the ingenuity of the press. The only times he’s eager to go public are during his stage appearances on Apple events, when it’s all about informing the public on the freshest gadgets and most recent upgrades.
