Best part: "We’ll be posting videos of the sessions shortly after the last event"

BigBalli2• 13 years ago

what do you mean "best part"?

glhaynes• 13 years ago

Probably that a couple of orders of magnitude more people will get to see them.

georgechen• 13 years ago

This seems like a great supplement for folks couldn't get to go to WWDC because it was sold out.... WWDC on Tour basically....

pjmlp• 13 years ago

If you are lucky enough to be selected that is,

"Attendees will be randomly selected from qualified applicants."

prehkugler• 13 years ago

As I've already gone to WWDC, would there be any benefit to going?

monkey_slap• 13 years ago

As someone who wasn't able to get tickets from network issues, please don't. :)

GuiA• 13 years ago

Well, I applied for mine. Is it free? Seems like it. That's a pretty cool move from Apple (yeah yeah, of course it's in their benefit, but still).

BenSS• 13 years ago

Usually is free, I was lucky enough to get a spot at one last year. Really great event other than a few scheduling snags. The access to the Apple employees is probably the biggest perk!

I went to one of these in Toronto a few years back and it was great.

Pity there isn't a web track like they had back then.

rfnslyr• 13 years ago

I was just checking if it was in Toronto and it's not :(

Anyone know if videos of these talks will be available online for all?

cshenoy• 13 years ago

From the site:

Can't make it to an event? We’ll be posting videos of the sessions shortly after the last event, so all Registered Apple Developers can take advantage of great iOS 7 Tech Talks content.

I went to the one in the Netherlands in november 2008. At the time, one half of the workshops were about making web apps for iPhoneOS and the other half was about developing for the then recently launched App Store. It was a great experience because there were a lot of Apple employees to ask technical questions.

LokiSnake• 13 years ago

That series was also pretty long, and went to a lot more cities.

rabc• 13 years ago

São Paulo session last time in iOS 5 was great and really crowded. Too bad we're out this time :(

chadwickthebold• 13 years ago

Is it just me or do those icons look like they were drawn by a 5-year-old with a crayon?

josefresco• 13 years ago

I wouldn't go that far, but they are bad. I think it will take some time for Apple's designers to adjust to the new style. Or maybe this was so far down the designer food chain that it got plopped onto the desk of an over-worked and under qualified graphic intern.

cheshire137• 13 years ago

Can you clarify what's bad about them?

coldtea2• 13 years ago

No, it's also other people that are not appreciating a certain deliberate design aesthetic.

You could show them the work of great Swiss designers for example, and they would think the same.

gurkendoktor2• 13 years ago

I don't care a lot about the deeper artistic value of this all, but I haven't seen anyone deny that this design is very polarising. Much more so than the visual style that has been used in previous WWDC slides.

The question remains whether a polarising design makes sense for things like developer sessions, or Apple's "iOS for businesses" website a while ago. If not, then it might technically be good design, but used in the wrong context.

joeblau2• 13 years ago

I just applied to the SF one. It would be great if I could get into one of these. It would be my first in person Apple event.

BigBalli2• 13 years ago

nice, just signed up. last time I attended was in Rome.

bulte-rs• 13 years ago

Just signed up for the Berlin event; would be my first time at an Apple event so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

For people who have attended a previous event: How long before the actual events did you get your invite?

lukabratos• 13 years ago

Signed up! Fingers crossed...
