MacMinute News and Slashdot report the death of Jef Raskin, who helped pioneer the creation of the Macintosh in the mid-80’s. Raskin was also the author of The Humane Interface, an important text in usability (which I had on my Amazon wish list at one time). Joy of Tech is also featuring a tribute to his memory.

    Michael Robertson of Linspire (formerly Lindows) wrote a nice Tribute to Jef Raskin. Jef Raskin was certainly a fascinating character with a variety of interests. One of these days I need to read his book.
