Alex Gibney's "Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine" documentary is coming in September

Steve Jobs' life and work, as well as the incredible trajectory of his success, will continue to be mined and expounded on as a source for movies and documentaries. While an early look at Danny Boyle's Steve Jobs biopic (starring Michael Fassbender) looks a little too Hollywood, Alex Gibney's Steve Jobs: The Man in the Machine, documentary (which drops on September 4th) takes a more incisive look at the life and work of Steve Jobs but seems to dwell on personal and past relationships.
Judging from the trailer, none of the source footage is new and has been derived from various video intervies of Jobs through the years. There are some interviews of former friends and colleagues, It is doubtful that there will be any earth shattering revelations to Jobs' life and times but it will be interesting to see how everything is put together by Gibney.

Now, you can see how these videos are supposed to look like with the latest update for Android and iOS. You no longer have to worry too much if you forgot to record your video in landscape. YouTube will still let you upload your video properly. Try watching these clips on your mobile devices.

You have less than a month’s wait if you’ve been keeping your eye out for the Android debut of Fallout Shelter. The first-ever mobile game from Bethesda Game Studios is designed to promote the upcoming Fallout 4 release. The free-to-play game has you taking care of residents in your own post-apocalyptic Vault-Tec Vault. You need to find supplies and make sure the residents aren’t happy and won’t wreck the place. Fallout Shelter first came out on iOS in June.
