He may have missed out to Facebook's Mark Zukerberg as Time Magazine's Person Of the Year", but Steve Jobs has now won the same accolade from the Financial Times newspaper in the UK.
It describes him as the "Silicon Valley visionary who put Apple on top".
The paper says the launch of the iPad is "the culmination of an approach that he has seemingly been perfecting for his entire career".
....he has secured his place in the foremost ranks of the West Coast tech titans who have done so much to shape the
world around the turn of the millennium. Long-time nemesis Bill Gates may be richer and, at his peak, arguably exerted
greater sway, thanks to his monopoly over the world’s PC software. But the Microsoft co-founder has left the stage to
devote his life and fortune to good works. It is Mr Jobs who now holds the spotlight.
