Flickr Find: Planet Earth sends a get-well card to Steve Jobs
It's a miracle! You're an Apple fanboy, you're in Morocco, and you look up in the otherwise blue skies and see the wispy shape of an Apple logo appear for a moment before dissipating. And you're lucky enough to get a picture of it:
Could it be that Planet Earth is sending Steve Jobs a get-well card? Or is it just a random occurrence?
Photographer Piero Formica's original Flickr picture can be found here.

Come on, guys. This is really getting out of control. You're making the rest of us look like dorks. Not everyone is all consumed by Steve Jobs' health issues. Give it a rest.

It's just a random occurrence. Planet Earth couldn't care less.

this is a very very deep a** lick from TUAW , it is not only making me shameful of even tipping www.tuaw.com, but also makes me think about if everything is okay with the heads of both who made a photo and who posted this stupid article.
Get well soon Steve!!!
sincirely, APPLE FAN BOY

It is "articles" like this that make everything anyone says about the whole fanboy (fanboi) thing completely true. I cannot imagine there is one person who looked at this and thought, "oh cool."
This, combined with the late-breaking (i.e. already posted elsewhere) articles, is really putting a damper on what used to be a very hip and informative website.
Please stop.

Unlike most of the other commenters, I liked this post. It made me smile.
Thanks TUAW.

Oh so you're dumb too?

This is ridiculous, this site has no relevant news anymore. Ill stick to macrumors and engadget. Besides that cloud has little resemblance to the apple logo.
Goodbye

Geeeeze, guys! Has everybody lost their sense of humor? This is meant as a tongue-in-cheek satirization of the fixation the press has about Steve Jobs's health. Give it a break with the hostile comments, OK?

Yea I agree. So every article has to be serious, yet you all laugh your arses off when Joystiq puts up a meaningless but amusing post?
Stop taking life so serious and just enjoy the 2 minute break you took from work to view this.
Yeeesh.

I agree, people just jump on TUAW, Engadget and Gizmodo to bit#h about other's efforts. They take things WAY too seriously sometimes. Id does kind of resemble n Apple, a few more bites out of the original but I can see it!
Thank TUAW!
the bitchy ones need to start their own blog and see how many "flames" they receive, then they'll understand and appreciate (but doubtful) ;-)

Seriously.. what does it matter as long as TUAW is also covering actual news??
Lighten up people.
Mystic said 12:13PM on 1-21-2009
You can really tell the original mac fans from the 'switchers'. Stick with the anti-everything-Apple Engadget/Gizmodo if you don't like these posts!
