On the 1-year anniversary of his passing, Apple has put up a new remembrance for Jobs up on its website. Visitors to Apple.com are greeted with a nearly 2-minute video comprised of a photo montage of Jobs from years past and accompanied by some choice Jobs quotes throughout the years including clips of Jobs introducing some of Apple’s most popular devices throughout the years.

The video is then followed by a quote from current Apple CEO Tim Cook which reads:

A message from Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO.

Steve’s passing one year ago today was a sad and difficult time for all of us. I hope that today everyone will reflect on his extraordinary life and the many ways he made the world a better place.

One of the greatest gifts Steve gave to the world is Apple. No company has ever inspired such creativity or set such high standards for itself. Our values originated from Steve and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple. We share the great privilege and responsibility of carrying his legacy into the future.

I’m incredibly proud of the work we are doing, delivering products that our customers love and dreaming up new ones that will delight them down the road. It’s a wonderful tribute to Steve’s memory and everything he stood for.

– Tim
