It certainly was.
As I'm catching up from my trip, I'm reading my G+ posts and have been following Guy Kawasaki's posts.
This is one he posted about what he learned from Steve Jobs.

Saw this YouTube vid about Jobs.
Having been used to seeing the weak Jobs for the last few years, seeing a healthy Jobs was almost a shock.
Then I saw a video with the TMZ picture of Jobs from a few days after he stepped down as CEO.

Cool video.
I haven't been getting too caught up in the whole "death thing". This video reminds why.
I keep busy creating, building things, helping others and doing the things I'm passionate about. I really don't think Steve Jobs would want us dwelling on his past. Life is too short. |

I agree with not getting caught up with his death, but just seeing the transformation is pretty sad.

Steve's family seems pretty cool and normal. That's one thing I've taken away from all of this. |
