Who is Steve Fake?

Techies were left gasping when an aggressive blogger leaked an anonymous diary supposedly belonging to Steve Jobs and caused waves of laughter throughout the tech community. Since then, however, that blogger who revealed him has come under intense scrutiny himself.

Early Life and Education

Dan Lyons, 46, who began blogging as Fake Steve Jobs 14 months ago said he wasn’t out to ridicule the tech world; rather he intended simply to test his writing abilities. His humorous take on Bona-Fide Steve Jobs’ secret diaries left tech enthusiasts laughing with amusement; it proved an effective method in drawing new readers.

Once a New York Times reporter had cracked the code to Fake Steve’s pseudonym, however, the search for truth gained steam. Bloggers quickly used high-tech sleuthing and traditional reporting to unearth any clues as to his true identity; one particularly dedicated effort came from Gawker Media founder Nick Denton who spent days poring over Fake Steve’s posts and emails for clues to uncover who Fake Steve truly was.

Professional Career

After playing roles as special operations military soldiers in various movies, Seagal transitioned to direct-to-video action thrillers in 1996 with Kurt Russell’s Executive Decision as an expert Navy SEAL counterterrorism serviceman. Additionally he directed an environmental film called Fire Down Below.

He also published Options: The Secret Diary of Steve Jobs, a Parody in 2007. This work expanded upon material found on his blog and included speculation on Apple’s stock options backdating scandal of late 2006/early 2007.

Andy Ihnatko of The New York Times conducted a lengthy investigation that exposed Lyons as “Fake Steve.” Ihnatko utilized both traditional newspaper reporting methods and social media as primary research methods.

Achievement and Honors

Silicon Valley gossip site Valleywag conducted extensive investigation to unmask the anonymous blogger who amused tech industry types with his humorous diaries purporting to come from Apple CEO Steve Jobs’ diary, who in reality was Forbes magazine technology editor Daniel Lyons.
