Tribute To Steve Jobs: a 21km Apple Logo in Tokyo

An anonymous reader writes "To pay his tribute to Steve Jobs, Joseph Tame, a media producer and a marathon runner from Tokyo, ran 21 kms in 2 hours — starting from the western side of the Imperial Palace, across to Roppongi, through Omotesando, then up to Shinjuku. The leaf is in Kagurazaka, and the start/finish point just by the entrance to Yasukuni Shrine. The route, when mapped, shows the famous Apple logo in the center of Tokyo."

      Nah. A Unix user would just use automation. That's what advanced technology is for.

      No, a Unix user would be there to manually configure every step themselves so that they could talk about how open and free the process was. When people point out that they only did Tux's foot, they'd respond with, "It's open source, you finish it!"
