Apple’s World Wide Developers Conference kicks off this morning as it does every year with Apple delivering a keynote address. They’ll most likely be talking about the current state of Apple’s business, unveiling what they have planned for iOS 9, and laying out what sort of sessions developers can partake in during WWDC this week. And hey, there just might even be a few surprises. Every year there’s buzz about Apple finally refreshing the Apple TV and opening the little box up to developers, but this year those rumors seemed to get squashed early on, so we’ll see. It’s also possible Apple will announce a new music streaming service at the keynote. And if we’re lucky, they might even talk a little bit about gaming.
The line to get into the Moscone Center here in San Francisco was a formidable one, and the sheer amount of news and satellite trucks parked out front is a good indication that this is a pretty big deal. Luckily, as has been the case for a few years now, Apple will be live-streaming the keynote so you don’t have to smash your way through a wall of humanity in order to watch the event yourself (if you were even able to get a WWDC ticket, that is). If you’re keen on watching the keynote, you can simply visit Apple.com from your Safari browser on your Mac or iOS device and catch the live stream that way. Or if you own an Apple TV there’s a dedicated WWDC 15 channel you can tune in to so you can watch the event on the big screen. Finally, if you’re the old-school type that prefers reading a second-hand account of what’s happening on stage, or if you’re simply at work and not able to watch the actual live stream video, here’s a few places to catch a liveblog of the WWDC 2015 keynote:

Eli and myself will be at WWDC all week long meeting with any developers who are in town and hopefully scoping out some cool upcoming iOS games. Stay tuned for much more coverage from the week, and if you’re in town don’t forget to attend our little get-together on Tuesday night. As for Apple’s keynote, we’ll be watching along with all of you. If any major gaming-related news is announced we’ll be posting about it, otherwise we’ll be discussing all Apple’s other announcements in the comment section below. Be sure to join in and enjoy the keynote!
