The Dawn Of A New Era, The Passing Of Another

by Matthew Edward Hawkins

Well, tonight’s been quite the night.

Just as I was about to post the following, to help hype the long-awaited relaunch of Attract Mode, and to show off the brand new, sexy as all hell logo, courtesy of Cory

… This all of a sudden happens…

Steve Jobs was a very complicated man, but one who made many of our lives much simpler and richer, especially for us creative types. Love him or hate him, he honestly was a genius.

He’s up there with Optimus Prime (from the original cartoon, naturally) as someone who had a profound affect on me, and whose passing I will greatly mourn (I mean that with all sincerity).

Yet I still find this pretty hilarious. Hey, we all grieve in different ways. Anyhow, RIP Steve.

UPDATE: This just in from Cory, a behind the scenes look at the new logo…

… To tie it into Apple, reminds me of how they came up with the iCloud logo.
