Apple.com tribute to Steve Jobs
As Steve Jobs tributes flood in, some feel that the best way to honour a man who changed the visual landscape of the 21st century is through powerful images, not words. Here’s the best of the (growing) bunch.
Apple stores. Apple devotees have rushed to the apple stores across the world to pay their respects, The Daily Telegraph reported:

While this collage tribute has sprung up on Twitter:

iPhone. One of the most elegant tributes made full use of the iPhone, arguably Jobs’ greatest creation.

Websites. In response to the news, several websites have dedicated their homepages to the ex-CEO of Apple. BoingBoing remembered the original Mac interface design, Wired committed their homepage to a black remembrance of the man, while Google added a simple note to their minimalist site, recognising the loss of a great innovator.
