WWDC 2013

So WWDC is starting today, excited to see some updates. I'm a little worried about this huge "flat icon" rumor that has been "confirmed". Now we're going to have to update all of our apps with new icons right? That's going to be a lame week! But I guess that gives me an excuse to add other updates to my apps if I need to send in a update for the icon anyways :) Heh. What are your thoughts? Excited as a user and worried as a developer? Cheers, David https://buzztouchmods.com

Free Buzztouch t-shirt to the person that nails the 'big' news to come out of this one. Remember the words of chief bottle washer, change is good! Updating some key apps for folks this summer so if change is required the timing is good.

I think it will be a pretty ho-hum WWDC. I think the biggest announcement will be iRadio. I am curious about the "give developers more access" quote from Tim Cook.

I don't know - I think Tim Cook knows he needs to come out in a big way to give the market confidence that he's the right man for the job. Not sure what that big way might be, but surely he knows it's time for Apple to make a splash again.

They are streaming it live so could be a pretty big announcement as they don't usually stream it.

If the plugin market gets the rumored filters we heard about from susans developer emails (like compatible for 6.0, 7.0, etc) then the winner gets to have the sole plugin spot in the compatible for 7 category. :-p Passbook - I tried using it, but it just never seemed to be useful enough for me. Haven't heard much about it so I thought it was a flop - do many people use that feature/app? Trying to find that livestream ha! David https://buzztouchmods.com

I think Passbook is too complicated for most apps to take advantage of. But for a business, it can be a powerful tool to increase sales. If I can get a plugin made, it will make things much easier. But, I also have a lot of other things to do in front of that project - lol.

I think the biggest news will come in the form of new interface design. WWDC is as much about iOS as it is about OSX, and I bet both operating systems are getting a significant design change. That's not too terribly exciting for most consumers, but this is a developer's conference. My "one more thing" guess would be the SDK for AppleTV. I've been thinking about that since my first AppleTV a year or so ago, when I wondered why there aren't any apps on it. This is just a guess, though - rumor mill has been pretty quiet on Apple TV. However, I think it would be smart if they announced a true apple television that would be available to buy in Q4, but the SDK is available now - developers have time to begin designing, coding and ready for the launch. That wouldn't be so outside of history, either, as the first iPhone was announced in January, but not available to buy until June of that same year. Start thinking about Buzztouch on your television!

Anybody ever use passbook? I have a few times. Kinda sucks in my opinion. My bet: Since Apple's huge sell-off and 35% devaluation of their stock they are being purchased by Google, and there will be a new reality series on FOX chronicling the transition. XL shirt please. Tim

That would be interesting - but I don't think all that forward-thinking. Interactive TV just hasn't taken off like people thought it would. Maybe Apple can change that - Google certainly couldn't. TV is just too passive of an activity. Now, if they can get video chat to work properly, it might become a powerful medium. But you need something like Skype that can work across platforms - the SmartTV market, although young, is very fragmented. An OSX overhaul would be nice. Perhaps they can finally get true integration between iOS and OSX, without sacrificing the application power of a desktop.

I am looking forward to it. I have doubts about any product release, because Apple usually keep their product announcements for the press in and usually at WWDC, they have software releases. I know it sounds mad (as an iOS developer), but I'm more looking forward to OS X instead of iOS! Although chances are that i'll be downloading iOS 7 today and tomorrow I can show it off to my class friends. I'll be watching this live in 20 mins: http://www.apple.com/apple-events/june-2013/

I like portability in my laptops and tablets - I don't mind if they let my desktop stay "big", it's under my desk and out of my mind anyways, and I won't be dragging it around to the library - so I don't see the need for them to make them smaller and smaller.

Man you guys have been busy today. I have been looking forward to this update for awhile now. iOS 7 is the first version released since Scott Forstall got shown the door at Apple and Tim Cook shook up his management team. iOS 7 is the un-Scottify version of iOS. Looking forward to even better things in iOS 8.

Nothing about buzztouch in keynote so I lost the shirt. I just sent you an email chris with your plugin live in the app store :) @Stobe, totally want to buy that buzztouch color code chain from you, do you still have one of those hanging around? David https://buzztouchmods.com
