This is short video from an 1994 interview with Steve Jobs. What does Jobs believe separates the dreamers from the do-ers? He states two things: being willing...

You might think I've lost the plot, posting a Teen Choice Awards video, but stick with me on this. And, persist through the random...

We've been watching you. Yes, you've been tweeting, Facebooking, hovering around water coolers talking about this movie. Well, now you can watch an excerpt. Firstly,...

There is no doubt that technology is changing education. Sugata Mitra has a vision for how education needs to change from this moment onwards. But, back...

Steve Jobs crystallises one very important piece of advice every entrepreneur should hear. This 46 video may change your life.

For anyone who has ever coded anything, you will know that smug sense of self satisfaction that you get when it actually works. That sense of achievement. The sense that you created something.

While I may have Bananarama running through my head at the very name of this boat, it's still one hell of a tub. While sadly...

Hologram sure are a lot cooler since Arnold J. Rimmer marched around the decks of Red Dwarf. Steve Jobs is back, in a rapping parody to launch the hotness of the new iPhone 5.

The value of this work lies in its ability to attract a completely new set of readers, when compared with other books on Jobs. Let me cite a personal experience. My nine-year-old daughter, who uses the iPad on a daily basis, was struck by the design of this graphic novel. She then proceeded to pick up and read it with fair interest. As far as I can tell she is able to appreciate Jobs’ life in her own way.

When a person enters into a business relationship, particularly with family members, friends and acquaintances, the use of legal contracts is often perceived as a sign of mistrust. It does not have to be that way.

I've always been a little afraid of Steve Ballmer. This video doesn't help. In 1985, on November 20, Microsoft released Windows 1.0. Steve Ballmer, ever the affable chap, stepped in front of the camera to sell this amazing new product.

What’s your “maverick” quotient? We're not talking about Tom Cruise in Top Gun. We mean, whether or not you can “recognise” a maverick — a creative, independent thinker who can be brilliant but troublesome and can keep firms aggressive and competitive. See if you fit the Maverickism Scale.

Way back in the mid-1970s, when dinosaurs still roamed Melbourne’s outer suburbs, Steve Wozniak said to his HP boss something along the lines of ‘I’ve had this great idea: personal computers in every home.’ HP boss, in turn, said words to the effect of ‘Pfff. If that ever catches on I’ll eat my highly-flammable, synthetic safari suit.’

What can’t be denied is the film's assertion that the business world is now the domain of Gen-Y entrepreneurs, who have the smarts and creativity to bring their billion-dollar ideas to life. Spurred on by the success of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, young men such as Zuckerberg have created successful businesses all through the typing of code on a computer screen.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates, long removed from his days as soulless overlord of the company that ruled our PCs, warms up for his appearance at the G-20 with this interview, in which he talks about taxing the rich, helping Third World nations and... Steve Jobs.

Innovation is a noun. This seems to have been forgotten. Innovation; such a buzz word at the moment, everyone is “doing it.” Trouble is, you don't “do” innovation; innovation is the result of what you do.

When Steve Jobs stepped aside in August as CEO of Apple, one pundit said the computing pioneer had the greatest second act in business history. But we wonder if Jobs sees it that way. But based on what we hear in this 2005 commencement address for Stanford University, Jobs' life has been one continuous push.

The iPhone truly sets us apart. You're an iPhone user or... well... you're just *not*. It is something many of us have known for some...

Based on this first-look video, Windows 8 looks eerily familiar to those of us who paid any attention to the Windows Phone 7 operating system when it came out a year ago -- big tiles that contain themes and logical (to the folks in Redmond, Wash., at least) collections of apps and data. And touching. Lots and lots of touching.
