Apple co-founder Steve Jobs was honored during Monday night’s Webby awards through a video featuring Al Gore, Buzz Aldrin, President Obama, and more.

The video tribute was introduced by John Hodgman and Justin Long, who were featured in Apple’s popular Mac and PC commercial series, and Richard Dryfuss who voiced Apple’s “Here’s to the Crazy Ones” ad.

The tribute video also included President Clinton, Bono, George Lucas, Vint Cerf, Adriana Huffington, Sarah Silverman, Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart.

Mr. Jobs passed away last year after a prolonged battle with cancer, and left a lasting legacy on the technology world with his vision and passion.
