It's something we don't normally think about but what does the "i" in iPhone mean?

Believe it or not a video featuring Steve Jobs unveiling of the iMac explains what the "i" means during the presentation.

Who knew? Most of probably thought it would be "internet," but I was surprised to find that it meant five things altogether.

The "i" actually stands for:

Internet

Individual

Instruct

Inform

Inspire

According to Mashable, the Steve Jobs video where he's telling the world about the iMac is from 1998 and where and when the "i" was explained.

I can't believe it took the internet 18 years to actually figure out what the "i" means. I thought that with computers and the internet as popular as they are we would have found out about this sooner.

"i" guess "i" was wrong.
