Steve Jobs - Stanford Speech
Steve Jobs Stanford Speech
In the eighties and nineties almost nobody in the industry gave a shit about what Apple was doing. It was called elitist and irrelevant. Apple first had to become a multi billion dollar company to be taken seriously. Steve Jobs talks about why he did all the effort trying to achieve this. Not because of the money, which is nice and gives you freedom. Spreading solid ideas, possibly beliefs, aesthetics and death are far bigger motivation.
Mary Queen of Shops
Mary Queen of Shops is a British television series presented by Mary Portas broadcast on BBC2. The series began with a four-week run starting on 7 June 2007, and returned for a second series of six episodes beginning on 9 June 2008. A third three-part series, titled Mary Queen of Charity Shops, began on 2 June 2009. The show returned for a fourth series on 7 June 2010, featuring various independent shops, rather than just fashion boutiques.
In each episode, Mary Portas troubleshoots her way around the UK on a mission to help turn around struggling fashion boutiques. Mary is a leading retail communications expert and is the founder and creative director of Yellowdoor.
Her aim is to turn the businesses around and put glamour back into shopping.
First, she visits the boutiques while the owners are away. Then she revamps them, gets the shop owners right up-to-date and hopefully helps them to start making money again.
In season 3, Mary takes on other retail shops.
