Steve Wozniak wanted to join the Zeppelin ride, but had an important Segway Polo match to attend, so we did a flyover to catch the action from above.

  2. Too fun. You’re having too much fun! "An important Segway polo match." Love it.

  3. It was fun playing polo and looking up into the sky as you floated over head! We gave you virtual high fives with our polo mallets!

    We love to fly on the Zepplin! We have already taken two flights…one over the Silicon Valley which featured a look at Apple and another flight to San Francisco at sunset! Both were EXCELLENT!

    If you get a chance to take a Zepplin ride, DO IT!

  4. And who could forget the Woz on Dancing with Stars!!-)

  5. The Zeppilin was a big hit for us. Everything stopped to observe you above us. I myself assumed it was an incidental overflight! Thanks for adding an extra thrill to our action.

  6. "Everything stopped to observe you above us."
    And that’ s when the other team made the final score… !!!! damn it you Zepplin !!! =P

    (funny how the spelling of the word Zepplin is "emerging" from all of you )
    Steve – Zeppelin
    Janet Wozniak – Zepplin
    Steve Woz – Zeppilin

    How about some Zepplin Polo next time ; )

  7. amazing creativity in the flickrverse… Nice, PhotonQ

    My favorite Woz moments have been at the STS-118 shuttle launch where he gave me a "nanotech ring", and playing Tetris backstage at Shoreline during some all day concert…. ooh, and he’s been a hero of mine since 7th grade…

    In the same situation, Andy "paranoia" Grove would probably have assumed that the zeppelin overflight was a devious plot by one side to score a goal while the opposing players were distracted

  9. Fun(ny) photo.

    I’m realizing that hanging around Woz, weird shit happens.

    Here are photos from the field of play (yep, that’s me with the camera).

  10. Sol – oh that cracks me up. It’s Surrealville.

    When I saw you crouched for a ground shot in the photo I wondered if we’d ever connect to share perspectives…

  11. Now all we need is the shot of someone taking a photo of the zeppelin with the zeppelin in shot to wrap the perspective triangle up..

    Wow for some reason I feel like getting my old Zep albums out.

  12. Woz spotted…. in Cologne…. video

  13. Meanwhile, Woz just said something interesting about innovation in the Valley:

    Steve Wozniak has admitted that Apple, the company he co-founded, is no longer the biggest innovator in Silicon Valley.

    When asked in an interview with Bloomberg which company is most likely to spearhead the next major technological breakthroughs, the tech icon responded that Tesla is moving in the “best direction” because it “put an awful lot of effort into very risky things,” such as electric and self-driving cars, ahead of the competition.

    “I’m going to bet on Tesla,” he said.
