Ok, just to see who here is crazy enough / lucky enough / insane enough to go to MWSF, sign in here.

I'm not there yet; landing in Oakland at 12:00pm tomorrow, PST.

I wish I was going

I'm going to be watching live text feeds of the keynote tomorrow.

However, I want to warn everyone right now: tomorrow we shall witness an unprecedented amount of bitching. Probably 3-4 times more than the standard bitching after a keynote.

So put on your life preserver and prepare for the maelstrom of whining that will flood the Mac community tomorrow.

What time is it?

Cubeoid · Jan 9, 2006, 10:22 PM

Heh, no one has signed in.

Kerrigan · Jan 9, 2006, 10:22 PM

I believe it is at 9am pacific, which is 12pm eastern, or 5pm GMT.

alligator · Jan 9, 2006, 10:23 PM

9 a.m. California time. Someone please post the links to the best live feeds. I need to feed my addiction!

I'm in Livermore, taking Bart over there tomorrow morning.

Count me signed.

I think Montanan said he was going, but I'm not for certain.

Lancer409 · Jan 10, 2006, 02:27 AM

I'm in the city, but I just started a new career so timing will be tricky. I have a lot of training and meetings to attend, for the next 5 weeks actually. I'll try to make time to visit the x hall. What time does the hall close (6pm? 8pm?)

James L · Jan 10, 2006, 03:06 AM

I am here right now, flew in at 4pm. Dinner at one of my favorite SF Chinese restaurants already, and now surfing doing some work before sleepy time.

Will be at the keynote tomorrow.

Cheers all!

Can't wait for the bitching to begin!

And while we are all sitting at work surfing, refreshing and preparing to drool, you are actually there prepared to host an iChat to keep us posted yes?

Enjoy!

seanc · Jan 10, 2006, 11:39 AM

Nevermind.

wdlove · Jan 11, 2006, 03:28 PM

Wish that I was there. My thoughts are at MWSF.

DeathToWindows · Jan 11, 2006, 06:21 PM

TailsToo · Jan 12, 2006, 01:37 AM

I was there and got the T-Shirt.

Montanan · Jan 13, 2006, 01:50 PM

Yep, I was there, all right ... had lunch with the good and noble Demonhood on Tuesday, in fact.

But no one else showed up! :-p

DeathToWindows · Jan 13, 2006, 02:02 PM

Dammit, I was coming from Oakland as fast as I could (my plane landed at noon and BART was a pain). Sorry I missed you guys.

Demonhood · Jan 13, 2006, 02:48 PM

next year i'm bringing a laptop so i'm not offline for days at a time. we'll coordinate better next time. hope you all had fun at least.

Monique · Jan 13, 2006, 06:26 PM

I really loved the macworld I went to in 2001, and I wish I would have enough money to be one of the guest to one of them. His keynotes addresses are so interesting and entertaining. I think (if I am not wrong) that he was one of the first one to use this format. And he is so incredibly brilliant, as anyone looked at Apple today compared to the one in 1998 when the shares were really down and so was the company. It took someone like him to bring that company from the brinks of disaster and with some courageous company make it into the most artisitic company in the world. He makes computers look cool.

Wsman2 · Jan 14, 2006, 02:54 AM

I drove in Wednesday from the South Bay. It took me roughly 1/2 hour to get to a convention hosted by the company that I actually live 2 minutes away from (Aye caramba!).

Anyways, I took pictures: http://www.flickr.com/photos/46233637@N00/sets/1826068/.

Demonhood · Jan 14, 2006, 06:03 AM
