Where is Steve Jobs buried? Fans hunt for unmarked grave

http://www.mercurynews.com/business/ci_28992210/where-steve-jobs-buried-unmarked-grave-california

Simple gravestones dot Alta Mesa Memorial Park, a century-old cemetery in the heart of Silicon Valley. On them are names dating back to Civil War veterans and the area's early inhabitants, sharing space with technology pioneers.

Steve Jobs is here, too, but his name is not....

At his family's request, his grave is unmarked and the cemetery has not revealed its location. But that hasn't stopped people from trying to find it.

Fans from all over the world have made pilgrimages to the Palo Alto cemetery and shared their experiences online. A video posted to YouTube by an Italian blog in the days after Jobs' death purports to show the path and grave site, focusing on a patch of fresh lawn not far from David and Lucile Packard's graves. A man in the video speaking Italian takes a bite out of an apple, places it on the grass, and kneels to touch the ground.
