Today MacWorld officially opens.\u00a0 This is the first year in probably some 8 years that I haven’t gotten myself up at some silly early time to stand in a long, long line waiting for Steven Jobs to deliver his keynote speech.\u00a0 My decision wasn’t based on Jobs’ decision to skip this year’s show but rather because\u00a0 – despite the excitement – the wait has become longer and longer over the years, meaning one needs to get up earlier and earlier.\u00a0\u00a0 I have seen various artists perform at the end of the shows – John Mayer twice, Randy Newman, – and I am sorry that I missed listening to Tony Bennett who performed this year.\u00a0 But, so it goes!<\/p>\n

After having a nice sleep, I arrived when the show opened.\u00a0 It was crowded, but not nearly as much as I expected.\u00a0 Although, again, because of being within the masses crunched in during past keynote speeches, any walking space seems unusual.<\/p>\n

Crowds are always around the Apple theatre to learn all about the latest and greatest.\u00a0 These include iLife ’09 — including\u00a0 many improvements\u00a0 such as face recognition in iPhoto (don’t care about), music lessons in GarageBank (very cool), and video stabilization in iMovie — and improvements to iWork ’09.\u00a0 Great news to music lovers is the “new standard” on iTunes – DRM free music.\u00a0 Then there is the release of the 17″ MacBook Pro, called “the most powerful Mac notebook ever” with a battery boasting 8 hours of use on a single charge.\u00a0 You can learn all about these things by visiting Apple’s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n
