Is this really Steve Jobs personal blog?

    I don't know whether this is indeed Steve Jobs - the Apple CEO personal blog. I just can't believe it - a billionaire can't afford to buy his own domain and pay for webhosting? Does anyone knows how to know - who own this blog?

    The fact that FAKE is in the URL doesn't give it away?

    A poorly contrived fake. Not even good enough to pass along!

    The blog's address is fakesteve.blogspot.com. I'm no linguist, but I'm guessing that means that, not only is it not Steve Jobs' blog, the owner doesn't intend to make you think that. :)

    Ugghh thank guys. Silly me - I was just a naive, a little curious that this guy could use Steve jobs photo etc without permission. The best part is that the blog is ranked so high - highly traffic site.

    Well, since he's good at impersonating the real Steve, that blog does have a lot of hits.
