Mfarhanonline Social Media News: Jonathan Ive, designer of Apple’s best products over the past 19 years, has been knighted. Whether you call him Jonathan Ive or Jony, you’ll have to put a “Sir” before it, because now he’s officially a Knight Commander of the British Empire (KBE), giving him the right to be called Sir Jonathan. According to the BBC, Sir Jonathan was excited about receiving the highest honor in the UK, describing it as “absolutely thrilling,” adding that he was “both humbled and sincerely grateful.” Beginning his work with Apple in 1992, Sir Jonathan (I’m enjoying calling him that) worked closely with Steve Jobs after Jobs returned to Apple in 1997, where the two would spend long hours together refining the company’s iconic designs such as the iPod, all of the iPhone designs, the various MacBooks and both versions of the iPad. Ive is now Senior Vice President , Industrial Design at Apple. Meanwhile, Twitter users have reacted with their usual humor at the honor bestowed upon Sir Jony. Our favorite is from Twitter user @pytey: “Wonder if Jonathan Ive will redesign his suit of armour so that it is produced from one solid block of aluminium” More About: apple , Jonathan Ive , Knight For more Tech coverage: Follow Mfarhanonline Tech on Twitter Become a Fan on Facebook Subscribe to the Tech channel Download our free apps for Android , Mac , iPhone and iPad Social Media reviews series maintain by Mayya
