Steve Jobs Funeral Is Friday At Westboro Baptist Church

The family of Steve Jobs scheduled his funeral for today, Oct. 7, according to a report. He was know for being a quiet man who kept himself to himself - but became the iconic face of modern technology. So it’s only fitting that the funeral for Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, who died this week aged 56, took place as a small private gathering.

An Apple, for the tribute for the Apple's god Steve Jobs.

The location was not disclosed out of respect for Jobs's family, the Wall Street Journal reports. The funeral is characterized as a small private gathering, this person said. The person wouldn't say where or when the event was taking place, citing respect for Mr. Jobs and his family's privacy. In a letter to Apple's employees on Wednesday, Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook said that the company is "planning a celebration of Steve's extraordinary life" for staff that will take place soon.

There are no public services planned but Apple has invited the public to send memories, thoughts and condolences to a special email address. A source told the Wall Street Journal that the funeral was happening on Friday but would not give details of where or when it was taking place.

A small, private funeral is taking place Friday for Apple founder Steve Jobs, who died this week at age 56 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. There's Twitter, and Facebook, and other social network forums to easily reach the world. And so it is with tiny-but-troubling Westboro Baptist Church, which has held hostage the search term "Steve Jobs Funeral" since Apple co-founder and long-time CEO Steve Jobs died Wednesday.

The funeral is characterized as a small private gathering, this person said. The person wouldn't say where or when the event was taking place, citing respect for Mr. Jobs and his family's privacy. Jobs died Wednesday at 56. Apple Inc. announced no cause of death, but Jobs had been diagnosed with a rare pancreatic cancer seven years ago and had a liver transplant in 2009.

But Westboro Baptist Church ironically made the announcement on an iPhone - and later said they would only picket a public remembrance. There are no public services planned but Apple has invited the public to send memories, thoughts and condolences to a special email address. In a letter to Apple's employees on Wednesday, Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook said that the company is "planning a celebration of Steve's extraordinary life" for staff that will take place soon.

"Westboro will picket his funeral. He had a huge platform; gave God no glory & taught sin," wrote Margie Phelps, daughter of church leader Fred Phelps, on Twitter Wednesday night.

Holiday Deals For iPhones In 2011

Black Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, when retailers slash prices on items in order to create a buying frenzy and shoppers wait in lines that span around malls for cheap laptops, tablets and HDTVs.

This all-important day for retailers is their opportunity to take advantage of the beginning of the Christmas shopping season to get themselves "in the black," actually making profits over and above the store's bottom line.

With September almost over, it’s time to turn our eyes to the next major event in the tech world. No, I’m not talking about the iPhone 5 release date, but a date that has almost the same level of buzz — Black Friday. Parsing a politician’s words has never been so tricky.

The release date for the iPhone 5 and the iPhone 4S is next month according to current Apple board member and former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, who spoke at a conference this week and revealed that the “new iPhones” (plural) will debut in October, quipping that it was an intentional plug.

One of the best sales during Black Friday 2010 was Apple’s iPod Nano 6G which was released in the previous fall. This small little music player with touch screen user interface is a must for any music lover, especially for teenagers, and has been one of the top gifts for last Christmas.

Black Friday 2011 Predictions

It is hard to believe that the Christmas and Winter Holiday shopping season is almost upon us. Although it is now only mid-September, sales predictions are already starting. Phillip Swan, over at TVPredictions.com has put forth six predictions, and Black Friday at GottaDeal.com has an extensive analysis of what to expect for Black Friday and the Holiday shopping period for several tech product categories.

One of the most important retailers on the US market which has had an impact during the Black Friday sales day is Walmart. Wal-Mart Stores Inc, branded as Walmart since 2008 is an American multinational corporation which is a chain of discount department stores and warehouse stores. Last year continued the trend of down years for many retailers, both traditional and online.

This holiday season including Black Friday is shaping up to be an important final opportunity for retailers to make up for the lackluster sales they've had the rest of the year. This holiday season including Black Friday is shaping up to be an important final opportunity for retailers to make up for the lackluster sales they've had the rest of the year. If you want to throw away money, Dealnews expects that you’ll be able to purchase an Android tablet for $75.

These Android tablets typically retail for $99, and have lackluster performance and specs — even for the average user. With Black Friday being exactly a month from Christmas, retailers will have to get consumers shopping earlier rather than counting on Black Friday and the few remaining weekends in December to provide most of their sales.

Online retailers, and brick & mortar retailers with e-commerce sites have the advantage here as they can quickly prepare and promote online sales leading up to Black Friday.
