Two weeks ago I was in Helsinki, Finland, as one of the finalists for Asian Angry Birds Challenge organized by Finnish Airlines Finnair and Rovio’s Angry Birds. Asian Angry Birds Challenge is a campaign to promote Finnair’s new route to Singapore and in conjunction with Angry Birds’s business strategy to focus in Asian markets. Anyway, I’ll leave the details and what was happening during the contest in the upcoming post because this post is all about Angry Birds! :D

A day before the Asian Angry Birds Challenge contest, we were invited to have an exclusive tour to Angry Birds Headquarters located in Espoo during the 2-day stay in Helsinki.

In this Angry Birds Headquarters tour, I got to meet some developers behind the famous Angry Birds game, hear the latest Angry Birds news and get the some insider information of Angry Birds future plans.

Apple co-founder and two-time CEO Steve Jobs has just passed away a few hours ago today at the age of 56. I just feel like writing a blog post as a memorandum.

I admire and respect him as an entrepreneur who believe in things he was doing and was so passionate in doing them. He has walked into many people’s life and changed the way we live. Without him, the mobile device industry won’t be the same today. It’s no doubt Steve Jobs is a legend and what he has left is a legacy.

May you rest in peace, Steve Jobs. You’ll be dearly missed. :(
