Have a look over here to start:

Yep, I’ve been reading and following it since it popped up. Thanks.

So do I, and I'm bummed it’s the first time since 2011 that I won’t be there, and this point I am even doubtful I’ll get to watch the keynote live, never mind the afternoon session.

I haven’t watched a livestreams in six years; pesky job. And I have to tell my wife not to ruin the reveals for me as she’s already heard all the news during the day, before I get home and can start catching up.

I'm taking the afternoon off to get some projects done at home, so I will be live!

Gurman says not to expect much hardware, I'm ok with that

You know what? Just an iMac speed bump would be OK for me. I'd be able to get what I want for less.

Jason Snell mulls on what might be attention:

“After more than 20 years of going to Apple developer conferences, you’d think that I’d have this down cold, but the fact is that Apple is always changing, and every time you think you’ve got its playbook figured out, it changes again. Regardless, here are some big ideas and trends that I think are the most likely ones for Apple to use on stage next Monday at the WWDC 2018 keynote.”

I have only been off work for one WWDC and my internet went out that day and I missed the live stream.

 

[Dave Upton]

I usually watch from work, but it's part of my job

 

[DaveF]

Not WWDC specifically, but ...not sure where to toss this.

I hope they figure out how to implement iCloud Messages on WatchOS pretty soon. That’s the one that needs it most.

Airpod stocks have dried up. Current guess is that a refresh is coming with the wireless charger bundled in.
An updated macbook was spotted on Geekbench. Doesn't guarantee a refresh but when it has happened before it was exactly that.

Personally I still think this is gonna be hardware light and we will spend 2 hours talking about OS and iWork updates, hope I am wrong.

 

[Ronald Epstein]

I fully expect that the airpad charging device will finally go on sale this week.

At the keynote, Tim just said (about 15 minutes ago) that today was "all about software". So, it doesn't look like there will be any hardware announcements today.

I stopped watching. Much easier to just read the synopsis on website once it's all over.

I was afraid of that, and it sucks. The entire Mac line is aged too far. Well, like I said earlier, I'll be content with just a speed bump on iMacs.
