Beating up a dead body

Screenshot from Google home page on March 2, 2005

I visited Google today (which isn’t really original right?) and I noticed a small note at the bottom of the page: In memoriam, Jef Raskin 1943-2005. Seems like Jef Raskin died on February 26, 9 days after I finished reading his book and gave the worst review ever. I have to admit I feel quite bad about giving such a bad review now.

Even if his book wasn’t very good, Raskin remains one of the very important actors in the development computers and especially interfaces.
