  1. How does Steve job impact our society? Steve jobs impact the society in many ways and in many places. Steve job has given use the power to surf the web at faster on a hand held devise by creating the iPod Touch. The power to play game, listen to music and take pic on the fly. If you think he has not impact you’re live at all then you have another thing coming. When you watch a cartoon movie with your children, Steve job is the one that started Pixar and is now the one movie maker in the world. If you don’t think at all the Steve jobs never impact your life at all, then I will bet a hundred dollars that you are wrong.

  2. Steve jobs impacted our society by many ways. One way he impacted our society is by making Apple. This impacted our society because this led to the invention of IPods, IPhones, and Mac computers to help make our life easier with new technology. Another way he impacted our society is by dropping out of college. This impacted our society because it makes him an inspiration and he still gained knowledge, still created Apple, Next, and Pixar without a college degree, and most importantly encourages us to do what we want and like, and not to live someone else’s life. The third way he impacted our society is by creating Pixar. Pixar is a huge impact on our society because it gives the children funny, joyful movies to watch without any inappropriate content. These are just a few of the biggest, more noticeable impacts he had on the society; there are still many more impacts he had made.

  3. I think heroes are both made & born because when Steve Jobs first started apple he started it in his garage. He got Fired from Apple which was a turning point in his life because like he said himself that was the best thing for him because he was able to move on to different things to impact our society. Steve Jobs came up with a lot good inventions such like computers and iPods and iPhones and Disney Pixar films. Which I think with Steve Jobs Knowledge and his courage to never stop living up to his dreams Steve Jobs was both born a hero and made a hero.
