The Recording Academy announced this week that Steve Jobs would be the recipient of a posthumous Grammy. The award will be the Special Merit Grammy Award.

They haven't yet announced the reason behind the award, but it's most likely for the drastic revolution the iPod and iTunes had on the music industry.

Also, a statue of Steve Jobs was revealed at Graphisoft, an architectural software company. Apple had contributed computers and money to help Graphisoft get it's start in the 1980s. Steve Jobs discovered the company at a conference in Germany. Apple helped them when they were a small company in a (then) communist country. For that, they've always appreciated Steve Jobs, and decided to create a tribute at their office.

There's no doubt Steve Jobs had an effect on many people's lives. And, for more than one company, even helped them get off the ground.
