I would imagine that being the CEO of Apple would be one of the most challenging but also most rewarding job in the technology industry at the moment. The company is enjoying such a tremendous run of success with their mobile and Mac products and have seen their stock price soar in recent weeks, but that doesn't mean that the position of CEO doesn't come with its fair share of stress.

Oh dear, it seems someone not only got their facts all muddled up, but also managed to upset the world's largest social network in the process.
When the MyGreatFest idea first came into existence towards the end of 2010, it was nothing more than a pipe dream, imagined by one person who felt an affinity with a company and the wonderful products that they provide the world with. The whole concept of MyGreatFest (now known as JailbreakCon or WWJC) was centered around the art of jailbreaking, which led a lot of people to believe that the proposed event must be against Apple but this couldn't be further from the truth.
Browsers, browsers everywhere, but which browser is your personal preference for all of your world wide web navigational needs? We tend to find that different browsers have different strong advantages and disadvantages over one another, but as with a lot of things in life; one of the key characteristics of a good browser is pure unadulterated speed.
