Steve Jobs Heart Attack Hoax on Wired.com

Earlier today Twitter was buzzing about a story that Steve Jobs had a cardiac arrest at his home in Palo Alto. The link that was re-Tweeted went to what appeared to be a Wired.com story by John C Abell. I turns out it was just a hoax. Someone had figured out how to trick the Wired.com public upload image viewer into displaying an image, in this case one that look like exactly like a Wired.com news story.

The real John C Abell of Wired.com explains what happened.
