On The Job: The Launch Of Apple
While the 26-year-old Wozniak was content with his computer hobbyist group, the 21-year-old Jobs had a greater vision for the future. After seeing a computer that Wozniak had designed for himself, Jobs began to think about the marketability of such products. He convinced Wozniak to leave his job at Hewlett Packard and together the two began working on constructing a personal computer. Jobs’ passion and Wozniak’s engineering talent would soon combine to become a revolutionizing force in the computer industry.
Riding the Wave: Yang and Filo Turn Surfing into a Success
“It was a really gradual thing, but we'd find ourselves spending more and more time on it,” says Yang of his and Filo’s newly created online directory. “It was getting to be a burden.”

Sloppy naming
If you've got more than one product or service, you have a problem. You need to decide if there's going to be an architecture to the way you name things. General Motors has a division, Chevrolet. Chevrolet makes cars, and each car has a name (Corvette, Impala). They have an architecture in place that makes some things clear very quickly.
Ten Questions with Kathleen Gasperini
Kathleen Gasperini is the co-founder and senior vice president of Label Networks. We met in May, 2006 at the Surfing Industry Manufacturers Association conference in Cabo San Lucas. Her company helps leading brands such as Apple Computer, Verizon Wireless, Pepsi, Vans, Levi Straus, and Burton Snowboards understand the global youth culture.
Financial Fitness for Entrepreneurs
While creating a growth business can be exhilarating, many entrepreneurs – especially those starting a company for the first time – don’t pay enough attention to some core issues surrounding the financial management of their businesses.
Lesson #5: “It was fun for me”
Before he invented the Apple computer, Wozniak created the first ever dial-a-joke service. He took calls live from his small kitchen, or while lying on the mattress in his bedroom. They called; he would make them laugh. For an admittedly shy guy, this was a significant feat.

Tasting the Fruits of Success: Apple Computer Corporation Takes Off
Wozniak and Jobs began spending an inordinate amount of time together, talking, planning, and envisioning what they could achieve as a pair. And they never stopped building.

You Are A Brand
Developing a strong sense of who we are takes both introspection and courage, but it is the core of finding our own brand.
A Moment to Change
Trees grow up through their branches, down through their roots and grow wider with each passing year. As growth occurs, trees eventually shed their protective bark to make way for growth. Humans are the same way. Just as trees need bark as a protective shield while growth occurs, we as humans need boundaries to defend our vulnerabilities as our potential unfolds… but our ongoing growth depends on our ability to shed this “bark” of protection when it is no longer needed. In some cases, an inability to shed this bark will constrict our ability to realize our full potential.

Viral Marketing, Let's See How it Works
The biggest problem most websites have is that they are instantly forgettable. They sell or say the same thing as hundreds or thousands of other sites; to an audience that is so quick to click-away that a large percentage of their traffic never appreciates why they should buy anything or listen to what's being said.
Find The Good
We are constantly inundated with a barrage of “news” from the media. It is complete and total overkill. Our daily lives are being bombarded with the daily stew of bad economic news served up by so called “experts” who all seem to have emerged “after the fact” giving us their interpretation of how things are bad and how they will get worse before they’ll get better. Who says? Where were these oracles when we needed them, ahead of the trend versus monday morning quarterbacking?

A Big Sales Tip
Here's a big sales tip. How would you like to keep close tabs on your biggest sales prospects, best customers, and fiercest competitors without having to lift a finger or pay a penny? Now you can!

7.0 Entrepreneurship and Small Business Success: Entrepreneurship and Small Business Enterprise Growth in Uganda
Common day definition of entrepreneurs tend to equate it with those who start small business (Drucker, 1993). This is a fallacy. Entrepreneurship is a dynamic process of creating wealth whether in small organisations or large organisations. Entrepreneurship is a continuous search for change, responding to it and exploiting it as an opportunity (Drucker, 1993). Most successful organisations are successful because of the entrepreneurial behaviour of their leaders and the entrepreneurial culture prevalent in the organisation. The key entrepreneurial behaviours include the following :

The Comeback Kid: Steve Jobs is Born
“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life,” says Steve Jobs. From the day he was born on February 24, 1955, Steven Paul Jobs has been blazing his own path. As the CEO of Apple Computer and CEO and Chairman of Pixar, Jobs is today recognized as one of the top leaders and visionaries of both the computer and entertainment industries and is worth an estimated $4.4 billion.
Be An Orange
When a prospective buyer is looking at your product or service, he or she is really comparing you to the competition. So the question is, are they comparing an apple to an apple or an apple to an orange? It is vitally important in marketing that you find a way to be THE orange! In other words, what is it about you that makes you completely DIFFERENT from your competitor?
Study: 2.5 million U.S., Canadian Households ready to buy an Internet-connected TV
There have been rumors that Apple plans to release its own television set later this year. I’m dubious, though I’d like to see it, along with a real beefing up of the Apple TV. However, if Apple did make theie own television, they’d probably want to have built-in Internet access.
About those Microsoft ads, some folks SHOULD buy a PC
Some folks are concerned about the recent spat of Microsoft ads knocking the high cost of ownership of Macs and the “Apple tax,” it all boils down to this: if nothing matters except getting a bargain basement computer as cheaply as possible, get a PeeCee.
Apple won't: a) buy EA, b) buy Twitter, c) launch its own game console
Tough economic times or not, Apple is rolling in dough. It has an US$29 billion cash balance, so this has led to some crazy speculation on what Apple will do with the moolah. There's been talk -- crazy talk in my opinion -- that Apple will buy Twitter and/or Electronic Arts.

iWoz A Geek: The Early Years of Apple Co-Founder Steve Wozniak
He might not be as well known as the ‘other’ Steve, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, but Steve Wozniak had just as much impact on the computer industry as we know it today. From designing over 50 mini-computers on paper in school, to founding Apple I and Apple II in the mid-1970s, Wozniak’s passion for the technology has forever changed the way the world does business.

Lesson #3: “Our whole purpose was to help others”
Wozniak and Jobs first met in their high school computer club, Homebrew Computer Club, where, says Wozniak, they created a unique balance together: “I was shy, he was outward.” As the two worked together on Apple, this would morph into a new kind of relationship. “I created, he sold,” says Wozniak.

Apple’s Decisions Could Be Impacting Your Bottom Line
Apple and its founder Steve Jobs are making decisions that are impacting you even if you don’t realize it. As it turns out, Apple has been making changes lately that will impact Internet marketers and Internet entrepreneurs around the world. If you want proof of Apple’s massive clout, all you have to do is look at statements they have made concerning Flash.
The New Rules of What-If
If you own a computer or read the news, you’ve probably heard of the “two Steves” – Jobs and Wozniak, who founded Apple Computers in 1976. Far less likely is that you’ve heard of Ron Wayne. He designed the Apple logo and along with Steve Jobs and Wozniak, was one of the original founding partners in Apple. Afraid that their new startup computer company would fail, Ron sold back his 10% stake in Apple for $800, only 12 days after he got it. If he’d held onto that $800 stake, even as a silent partner, today he’d be worth around $22 billion.

Mobile Devices - A Matter of Balance, Style
First it was a rather large (manly) computer we carried with us when we left the office, went on the road. The computer got lighter, easier to carry, more powerful. Then came the "portable" phone...it got better to. Next was the switch from real books to an ereader. Then Apple had to "reinvent" the tired old tablet and ...
