I'm at WWDC all week, getting my dose of IT management for the Mac environment. Other than the keynote, the rest of the week is all NDA, so I won't be able to post anything else. Other IW folks (Ephraim Schwartz and Tom Yager) will have more coverage for non-NDA interviews and discussions. Check out the InfoWorld WWDC 07 Special Report and Tom Yager's Enterprise Mac blog for more coverage.

My thoughts on the keynote: Not a huge surprise. Apple fashions itself as primarily a hardware company, but one that happens to make great software. They've had a huge amount of success with iTunes on Windows, so bringing Safari to the Windows platform isn't a big surprise. I think it will tie in nicely with the Safari integration on the iPhone, so that Windows web developers can build their AJAXified apps to target the iPhone more easily.

I was expecting something more about .Mac, honestly, beyond the connections between Macs through it. That is a cool sounding feature, which would help me support my family's Macs and make it easier to access things that I have on my Mac Pro in the office while I'm mobile. But what I really want to see is Google handling the .Mac experience, tying in the various excellent Google apps with the slick .Mac integration.

I'm really wondering why they didn't show off something like Google Reader from the iPhone. The basic RSS support that is built in to Safari can't compare with GReader, and it would really bring home the zooming and flexibility that is built in to the iPhone.

Ah well - time to grab my Developer Preview of Leopard and clam up about things for the rest of the week. =)
