Macworld Expo becomes Macworld|iWorld
By Sarah Petit: Taking a page from Apple’s own playbook, Macworld is undergoing a transformation this year. Much how the iPhone and the accompanying iOS began taking on greater prominence within Apple, so too are they taking on greater prominence at the premier Mac-oriented tradeshow.

On December 16, 2008, Apple shocked the Mac community when it announced that it would no longer participate in MacWorld following the 2009 expo. In a press release issued at the time, Apple commented: Apple is reaching more people in more ways than ever before, so like many companies, trade shows have become a very [...]

With all of the hoopla surrounding the iPhone 4 antenna, one of the phone’s more compelling features – that being its kickass camera – was consistently overlooked. In fact, the iPhone 4 camera is so well-regarded at Macworld that they decided to shoot and edit the cover of their latest issue entirely with the iPhone [...]

The first ever issue of Macworld is a classic. Apple co-founder Steve Jobs dressed in a pinstripe suit, standing over one the most revolutionary products in the history of tech – the original Mac.

Monday, March 30, 2009
IDG today announced that next years Macworld Expo will take place from Feb. 9-13, 2010. The February dates are interesting because its a few weeks later than when the Macworld Expo is typically held (early-mid January). Last year, Apple announced that 2009 would be the last year it would officially attend the Macworld Expo, and [...]

Monday, February 2, 2009
When Apple announced that 2009 would be its last year at Macworld, CES pounced at the opportunity to reach out to Mac software developers and accessory makers in an attempt to convince them to migrate over to CES in 2010 – and so far, according to CES officials, the initiative is off to a resounding [...]

Wednesday, January 14, 2009
There have been rumors floating around suggesting that Apple is planning to attend CES in 2010, and according to sources at AppleInsider, Apple’s attendance is a done deal. On its face, this rumor is absurd for a variety of reasons. After all, Apple left Macworld, which also takes place in January, precisely because it became [...]

While there still hasn’t been any official confirmation from Apple or anyone else regarding Apple attending CES 2010, CNET is reporting that the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) has in fact confirmed that there will be a Mac themed exhibit at CES 2010 for Apple-centric manufacturers.

Saturday, January 10, 2009
AppleInsider is corroborating earlier rumors suggesting that Apple is planning to attend CES in 2010. Wow. At first glance, the rumor seems preposterous. After all, didn’t Apple say that Macworld, which also takes place in January, put too much pressure on the company to come up with a razzle and dazzle product on someone else’s [...]

Friday, January 9, 2009
If you thought Apple’s keynote this week was boring, I highly advise you not to watch Microsofts presentations at CES. This isn’t a swipe at Microsoft, but rather intended to show that the vast majority of presentations by tech companies aren’t terribly exciting. Yet for some reason, Apple is held to some impossible to reach [...]

Thursday, January 8, 2009
Phil Schiller recently announced that the iTunes store was going fully DRM-free, and for whatever reason, people are still finding something to complain about. First off, Apple is charging 30 cents a song to upgrade to a DRM-free library. Does it suck? Is it annoying? Sure, but people need to calm the f down. I [...]

Thursday, January 8, 2009
Apple’s final keynote presentation at Macworld is behind us, and some tech pundits are already calling it a ‘snoozer’ and a ‘disappointment’. Wall St. also didn’t respond to favorably to Apple’s announcements, or lack thereof. But all of these critics are missing the bigger picture. The reason Apple has been so successful over the past [...]

Phil Schiller just announced that iTunes will be going entirely DRM free along with the introduction of a three tiered system for songs, ranging from 69 cents, to 99 cents, and up to $1.29. Apparently, songs between 0-6 years old will stay priced at 99 cents, and older songs will fall into the aforementioned tiered system. It seems that [...]
