San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee is here (as spotted by James)
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 4:48:14 PM
Saw Jay Blahnik, Director of Fitness and Health Technologies for Apple. I think he'll be very busy at this WWDC keynote.
Jason Parker 6/8/2015 4:49:03 PM
Wait a minute, Scott. I'm trying to envision you turning on the Imperial March when you sit down to dinner and I'm just not buying it.
James Martin 6/8/2015 4:49:05 PM
Michelle Meyers 6/8/2015 4:49:06 PM
Readers, although you have the ability to comment, your comments won't show up from this point on. We're dealing with a minor technical glitch.
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 4:51:42 PM
it's warm in here, now, too.
Shara Tibken 6/8/2015 4:52:57 PM
Yeah, very warm. I'm also having a lot of connection issues.
Shara Tibken 6/8/2015 4:53:00 PM
This should be interesting
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 4:53:55 PM
things are getting warm and slow. like the end of the Cretaceous
Shara Tibken 6/8/2015 4:55:17 PM
Ok. we just got the warning that we're starting soon. Just got the reminder to put devices in silent
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 4:56:24 PM
Periscope co-founders LITERALLY sitting right in front of me. Which I should Periscope.
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 4:57:00 PM
WOW! The bass is heavy now. Thumps in my chest. I think that's the music.
Jason Parker 6/8/2015 4:57:15 PM
the music is crazy loud in here. It's like a nightclub.
Shara Tibken 6/8/2015 4:57:52 PM
The music is so loud right now, I'm almost going deaf. Bruno Mars' "Uptown Funk"
Shara Tibken 6/8/2015 4:57:53 PM
We’re about to get underway, judging by the volume of the music. Apple has had a long history with music, and we’re expecting a lot of news out of that area today. Apple likely will introduce a new paid streaming music service that's Apple-designed but uses technology and music content from the company’s recent acquisition of Beats.
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 4:58:21 PM
"Don't Believe Me? Just Watch." A good way to test speakers and hearing
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 4:58:43 PM
If Apple Watch tells me to stand now, I'll dance.
James Martin 6/8/2015 4:58:45 PM
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 5:00:36 PM

We start with....a sketch! "David LeGray" played by Bill Hader. And lots of others. Sketch comedy having a big day so far.

Scott Stein 6/8/2015 5:04:48 PM
This almost has a Google-like feel. Loose, and celebrity-filled...will there be Muppets?
Michelle Meyers 6/8/2015 5:05:01 PM
Shara is having connection issues, so I might jump in to narrate...skit still going on. Lots of chuckles.
James Martin 6/8/2015 5:05:17 PM
Michelle Meyers 6/8/2015 5:05:33 PM
Nice quality skit, celebrity-filled
Scott Stein 6/8/2015 5:05:52 PM

Michelle Meyers 6/8/2015 5:06:36 PM

Shara Tibken 6/8/2015 5:06:40 PM
Cook gives a shoutout to Apple's 350 scholarship winners.
