Apple will kick off WWDC 2009 with a keynote address on June 8th, 2009. News sites across the web will cover every announcement in detail, while Apple's site will be updated with any new products announced.

Some readers prefer watching the keynote themselves without knowing the outcome. Unfortunately, there is no live video feed for the keynote. Instead, Apple will likely post a recorded QuickTime stream a few hours after the keynote ends.

For those individuals, we've posted this news story, which will be updated with the link to the Macworld Keynote once it becomes available from Apple. No other news stories or announcements will be displayed alongside this story.

I always end up reading the live coverage because I can't resist, and then watching the video when I get home from work hours later. Despite knowing what's announced before watching the video, I always find watching the presentation a lot more compelling. Somehow still pics and text don't do the keynotes justice, especially when it's a Stevenote, which hopefully we'll have another of by the end of June. :)

I think I'm gonna skip this one. The secrecy on Apple's side isn't as good as it used to be and without Steve Jobs (no offense to Phil Schiller) it just isn't that entertaining any more to watch a Keynote.

However, I might see if I'm free to keep a look out for the elusive direct link.

I know what you mean. I'd watch the spoiler-free stream if:

a) Reading the text version, for me, didn't seem like a tradition :) and
b) I could stop myself from reading the text version.

Would be kinda nice to watch the video without knowing what happens though...

Thanks Arn for accommodating us again... I'll be waiting for the podcast of the event on Tuesday, but if it's not out by then (I'll be having people over to watch), I will use this stream.

The great part about waiting is that you have to avoid news sites all day Monday... it will be my most productive day ever! :D:p

I can't decide if I should wait and watch the video steam, or read the live text updates. What do you guys think? Worth the wait?

And roughly how long does it take for the video to be put up? I remember last time it seemed like it wasn't up until late that night.

EDIT: nvm, Twit Live is going a show live during the keynote. no way i'll miss that.

This is my usual pattern. The announcements are always around 3am here due to the time zone. I usually can't sleep if there's an announcement anyway.

I open up as many as ten sites covering live open all at once, refreshing each over and over for just a couple more words at a time.

It's awesome when someone inside gets their mobile phone hooked up to a relay server so we can hear it live....

I take notes collating the key points of the announcement as it goes along. Formatting it into a ASCII monospaced table.

Maybe I'm too nerdy...

6pm here.. I tried so hard the past few times and never quite managed. It involves avoiding reading texts from a mate, checking Engadget, BBC, here.

I have to do the same thing every week for the football - avoid finding out the scores so I can watch the highlights without knowing what's going to happen.

Does anyone know how long it will be until they post the video as a podcast/downloadable version (as in guess based on previous times)? The only real time I will have to watch it is on board the train, where I'd have no internet. I'm not sure if I'll hold out if it's a real long while.

Please don't post comments like that if you find out the news. I even consider stuff like that spoilers. :)

Nice going Arn!!!

You blew my plans all to hell... I sure hope you can sleep with yourself knowing how you've forever changed my outlook as a man and a mac user!

I wanted to be SURPRISED about the fact that there was a WWDC event and/or the WWDC even would be streamed at a later time/date...

Well life will never be the same again...

/looks for a high bridge, cliff or sizable credenza to jump from...

:D

Sorry but I just had to poke fun at the people who whine about this stuff each and every year... You come to MacRumors for a reason, to read about all sorts of leaked juicy tidbits that find their way out of Cupertino! Then when it comes to actual/factual Apple news being reported LIVE blow by blow you go nuts if you see it mentioned?

People are weird... I mean I can kinda see wanting to see the 'presentation' thats something only Apple truly does well but if that were the case then I would take it upon myself to steer clear of sites where the new might be reported realtime... Like Apple sites, news sites, financial sites, etc etc etc.

Come on boy and girls... Its time to take responsibility for yourself and quit having a hissy when any of the mac sites so what they are expected to do.. You know you don't wanna hear stuff... then DONT visit! :D

I won't be going spoiler-free any more (until Jobs comes back, of course). But the original reason for these spoiler-free notifications was because of the entertainement value of watching a keynote and being surprised. Recently though the leaks have become more and more accurate, and the Keynotes aren't as entertaining any more. I blame the endless demo's and departure of Steve Jobs.

But I assume those are not the same as the keynotes that you can stream from the Apple site a bit later? I'm guessing they need to do some quick editing (focusing the speaker or keynote presentation when needed, etc) before it's up, so that's why it takes a while.

Can't wait though! Still 2-day-spoiler-free :D

30-40 minutes if someone finds a direct stream (not on the Apple site)

Earliest in the last 2 years (6 events) was 9:35pm UK time which was 3:35 after the start of the presentation.

Gave up waiting last time and watched the blogger coverage - made the actual presentation much duller - mind you, so did all the advertising demos!

Get well Steve.

Hey all! :D

Back on just about the only board I post on - Spoilerfree!
Its good to be back. Back with the most geeky people on the planet! Not only are we MacRumors readers (Huge Geekyness) but we hang out here in the hope of watching a webcast of an Apple Event spoiler free (Titanic Geekyness!!). Really; the geek factor here is a beautiful thing!

Thanks again Void for supplying us with the link! You (still) da man!

I'm hoping for:
iPhone video recording and editing (on new hardware only - thats the killer app)
A large BT or dock keyboard for iPhone with a good word proc' app (with propper Spell Check!)
Snow Leopard release date
Apple TV software and hardware update

I rate the above as:
yep
nope

What are you guys reasonably expecting?

Well, I'm shooting 30-40 minutes but last time I looked at a keynote (mini one) was the October laptop one, where it took just about that time (surprisingly). Yes the last exciting keynote for me anyways :D

This is WWDC so it might be different. How long did they take to upload MacWorld?

EDIT : Out of curiosity, how do people like void and Macnoviz find the links? Guessing?

Not at all. Every once in a while with these things, we get to witness industry history being made, and the keynote is always the best way to see it happen.

Well, I'm shooting 30-40 minutes but last time I looked at a keynote (mini one) was the October laptop one, where it took just about that time (surprisingly). Yes the last exciting keynote for me anyways :D

This is WWDC so it might be different. How long did they take to upload MacWorld?

EDIT : Out of curiosity, how do people like void and Macnoviz find the links? Guessing?

if i remember MWSF took a few hours but i wasnt sure... so i asked and got mixed results

Someone might want to delete that link to Engadget in rhett7660s post, I clicked it and saw a spoiler. I won't mention anything though. ;)

I'm still rocking my 12"PowerBook, too! All 867MHz of it!

I'm still using my first generation 17" Powerbook 1GHZ with 1 GB Ram. Its been six years to the month that I got it as a HighSchool Graduation gift. Its still works great, although I cant go 15 seconds with it not plugged in, the battery is shot.

I'm able to use FCP pretty well, as well as a lot other software. But I would like to get a current generation, but alas, it will have to wait until my checkbook agrees. :(

when doing this whole "dodging the spoiler spots on the net" makes one realize how connected we all are. it reminds me of a coupe of years ago, when my cell busted. i was unconnected for like a week, it sucked at the start, but by day 4 it felt so good to disconnect.

it does... i wait it out partially for the excitement of the video but also cuz its nice to just be disconnected from everything... its just a nice break that i take every few months :D

We could keep ourselves busy by changing the subject!
Funniest thing I ever saw in an online post:

Qwerty misspelled...I think they spelled it querty or something...how does
that happen?

Anybody else?

I'm typing on an Azerty board, which is used in Belgium and France (among others). Not much difference, but someone with an Azerty board could misspell qwerty...

im a teen and i went to see it... i thought it was funny and cute... seen it 2 times and was great both times

I wouldn't mind having an iphone, thats camera could directly compete with the little usb video camcorders.

that would be nice... it would have to be a high quality thought... im not expecting that... anything better than what we have now would be great

Are those standard in belgium and france? Didn't know those existed.

yeah. The main differences are that the a and q are switched and the z and w are switched. The numbers in the top row have to be used with the shift key and the é, è and à are more accessible (also in the top row, without the shift key). I bought an external qwerty Apple Keyboard and now I can use both, they both have advantages and disadvantages. But the main reason for the azerty board is to accomodate the accented characters of French. Belgium also uses these, although the larger half of Belgium, Flanders, speaks Dutch, so we're stuck with a french keyboard despite not really needing it.

Still, it's no big deal, except for games with wasd controls, which have to be changed to zqsd to be able to play comfortably (obviously, you try controlling a character with zqsd and you'll know how we feel)

Hi guys.

I'm a bit late to the party, but I couldn't really stand a whole night in front of the computer, resisting my usual urge to check the RSS-feeds and websites, waiting for the feed. So I went out to dinner with a friend, hoping for the link to be up when I got home.

The last couple of times it's only been 2-3 hours after the keynote finished. So it should be up any minute, if there hasn't been some hickup.

it's crazy silly how hard it is to go off the grid for a while these days.

i time-shift my favorite shows, so, when the LOST finale happened I had to go off the grid for two whole days. that was insane.

can't facebook, can't twitter, can't CNN, can't aggregator-site, can't anything, if you wanna enjoy the show spoilerfree. insane nerdiness.

one day someone's gonna make a fortune on making a perfectly reliable spoiler filter!
