A few weeks ago Jim told me I wasn't going to WWDC, Apple's annual developer conference, which happens in June this year, in San Francisco.

To be honest I was a bit disappointed -- last year was my first WWDC, and I got a lot out of it, both at the few sessions I sat in, and also having the chance to talk with developers that I don't get to see a lot of outside of events like Macworld Expo. It's also going to be the first opportunity that developers will have to get their hands on a feature-complete version of Mac OS X v10.5 "Leopard," which is due to be released in October. It's also around the same time that Apple plans to ship the iPhone, which I'm very excited about as well. So it's a real confluence of events that has Apple nerds like me drooling.

Anyway, on Monday, Jim told me that I was going after all, so I booked my flight and hotel room. So if you're planning on coming to SF for WWDC and you'd like to get together, please drop me a line.

Personally, I think the plan was to send me the whole time, and Jim was just being sadistic. Ever since he grew that beard he acts like the devil.
