Apple makes WWDC
presentations available for
viewing in the Developer iOS appWhat Apple can do
If you regularly attend WWDC you may not have
noticed, but over the past few years Apple really
has transformed the event from one that happened
behind closed doors to one that occurs live on the
Internet. Many or most sessions are live streamed,
with archived versions available on the WWDC app
for later playback. The session content of WWDC
could happen from a few studios at Apple Park,
with no need for a large
group gathering.
In terms of a keynote, Apple
has several options. It can invite
a small number of guests to a
live media event at the Steve
Jobs Theater – possibly with
health checks for attendees- and make its major WWDC
announcements in the same
way it unveils the new iPhone
every year. I kind of can’t
imagine Apple doing a keynote
without a live studio audience
of some kind, but it’s possible
it could limit the guest list
