Title: Will Steve Jobs' final vendetta haunt Google?
Author: MICHAEL LIEDTKE
Source: The Miami Herald
The topic of the article is Steve Jobs death could hurt Google's mobile operating system, "Android" since he claims that "Google stole Apple's Ios system"
The main idea of the article is: Steve Jobs (and his death) vs. Google            
                                          (implied/stated)          
The author’s purpose for writing this article is to explain about Steve Jobs' troubles with other companies and other operating system platforms.
The author’s perspective in this article is objective/subjective (biased) because he sides on which one of the 2 is true.
The pattern of organization of the article is put in a small time period of Apple products and how the mobile industry is.
The reason the author chose this pattern for the article is because how he wants to show about Jobs' death and Google's mobile operating platform, Android.
The text features included in the article are: The title was used in the article. A picture of Steve holding an Ipod Nano 3rd generation with a mini article displayed next to it.
This article is about (a summary in your own words)
This article is about Steve Jobs' death could hurt Google's mobile platform, Android. Which many people use and how Google is dominating the mobile world. Plus Steve wants Google eliminated no matter what it takes.
The significance (importance) of this article is how this is related to Jobs' death and how this about the "Android vs. Ios" scenario. 
What I learned from this article is that Steve Jobs is biased against Google and how he wants Google's mobile operating system gone.
What I liked about this article was how it was about Android and Apple which are to me in my opinion the best PMPs and computers.
What I did not like about it was how the author was on Steve's side about this "tech war" and how Jobs was like "I want Android gone and killed even if I have to start WWIII."
Who should read this article and why:
Engadget; because they are all in the "tech scene" and know  about the "Android vs. Ios" debate/war
Android developers; because they know Android and how it works. Plus I know that it was created in 2006 but only mobile platform developers had a prototype of Android.
Maybe "fanboys" of each side if they are biased against one side and another, but this could make them start raging about Google,Apple,and maybe RIM (BlackBerry) if a RIM "troll" comes in and say they are better which I disagree with RIM.
This article reminds me of 
(text-to-self) Me getting my first ever Android device which was the Archos 32.
(text-to-text) The developing code for Android and Ios.
(text-to-world) The "fanboy" war against all mobile operating system platforms.
New vocabulary I learned
I did not learn any new vocabulary after reading this article.
