Hell hath no fury like a blogging personality scorned... When Steve Jobs refused to have his photo taken with Violet Blue I'm guessing he didn't quite know what he getting himself into.
According to Violet Blue, the situation went thus: "I saw that Steve Jobs was just hanging out on the Macworld Expo floor, not in conversation, not talking to anyone, and poking at his iPhone in the middle of the wandering public, so I walked over, thinking a girl--in this case, a fangirl, me--will never get anything if she doesn't ask for it, I lightly touched his arm and said, 'Hi.' He looked at me, and I blushingly asked if it would be OK for me to take a picture with him. I didn't say my name or give credentials or anything else, I was just any girl. He told me curtly, flatly, that I was rude. And turned his back to me." She did however, get a photo of his back (is he looking thin? I think he's looking thin).
