Steve Jobs' health has been an important topic of rumours ever since he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in mid-2004. He was treated successfully, and recovered from his ordeal. Ever since then, rumours of possible health problems popped up regularly, which were only ignited further by Apple's recent announcement to drop out of MacWorld San Fransisco, with Steve Jobs not delivering the famous keynote speech coming January. Gizomodo threw a whole lot of oil on the fire today by publishing information which they claim comes from a source which has always been 100% accurate.

Well... I'm afraid this time it might be for real. I saw Steve Jobs about a week ago. I first I didn't notice it was him: he looked like 20 years older and extremely fat 
I'm sorry for him and I really hope he gets better.
I don't think anyone can get a picture of him from the last month or so to prove this (and, of course, I did not take a picture myself either!).
In any case, these are personal matters and I really think we should be discussing about something else.

Yay, here we go again with the <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/28437017">unsubstantiated rumors about Steve Jobs' health. Are we going to have to endure this same thing every other week for the next 15 years of Jobs' life? And have Gizmodo (and the rest of rumor trigger-happy sites) no shame to turn the hard time in a person's life into a circus? I understand that Steve Jobs is an important part of Apple and Apple is an important part of the tech industry, so the interest in his health is inevitable. But after all the false "reports" I would have thought people would hold off writhing about it unless they have official or at least very, very well corroborated information.
