A Tribute Storms The Web

Until a couple of days ago Jonathon Mak Long was just a Polytechnic University School of Design student. Then the passing of Steve Jobs and an image by Long described as...

A tribute to Jobs's contributions to the world: I wanted to commemorate him. He's such an integral part of Apple. I thought it would be fitting to include him in the Apple logo. Long added, With Jobs gone, Apple is literally missing a piece.

Since then the tribute logo has set the internet "on fire" with people wanting it from everything from the new Apple logo to a tatoo. A cyber tribute that found itself as the preferred profile pic on Ashton Kutcher's Twitter account and on merchandise featured on eBay. While Long, who by the way lives in Hong Kong, (and learned English by watching the TV show "Friends") has received several job offers, but he hasn't acted on them, he is still a student, "I just got my first MacBook Pro a year ago," he told Yahoo -- and he still doesn't have an iPhone.

Asked whether he'd heard from the folks at Apple, Long said he had emailed CEO Tim Cook but so far hadn't heard back.
