Apple WWDC 2013 logo evolution tips cross-platform conglomeration

Today Apple has let loose information about their 2012 developer conference, showing a hero image for the event that’s unmistakably indicative of their intent for content. As the past few years have shown, the invitation for WWDC isn’t always a perfect representation of what will be unveiled – but clues are always present. Here in the 2013 edition, the multi-colored stack of four-sided, rounded shapes along with the ultra-thin stick lettering shows Apple is ready to open a whole new door.

The initial invite to WWDC 2013 let developers know that they’d be in for just as exciting a set of presentations as any they’d seen in years past, promising also that those not able to attend would be taken care of. Noting that they’d be posting videos of each and every session spoken at the series of events, Apple made it clear that Registered Apple Developers would be able to take advantage of the content even if unable to be there in person. These videos have been promised to be delivered in a timely fashion.

If you have a peek at the image above, you’ll see what WWDC 2012 delivered as its first and main event mark. This combination preceded an event which delivered the original MacBook Pro with Retina display as well as sets of updates to Apple’s mobile and desktop operating systems iOS 6 and OS X Mountain Lion. Below you’ll find the WWDC 2011 image presented before the show – this tipped the reveal of Mac OS X Lion, iOS 5, and iCloud.

The 2010 edition of WWDC revealed the iPhone 4, changed the name of iPhone OS to a much simpler iOS, and showed both FaceTime and iMovie for the iPhone. So now that we’re several years in to this trend of revealing major software updates and a return (after one year without) of hardware announcements, Apple has been tipped to be bringing both to San Francisco on June 10th. And if you’re feeling cheeky, you could see the 2012 logo’s color orbs converging together to create the logo you see for 2013′s event – that could mean some real one-ness between the systems.

Apple promises swifter WWDC 2013 streaming for absent devs

We don’t know what Apple will reveal at the WWDC 2013 keynote this June 10, but we do know most developers who’d like to attend won’t be able to get tickets; happily, Apple has promised more timely developer session videos for those who can’t be there. “We’ll be posting videos of all our sessions during the conference,” Apple confirmed on its WWDC page, “so Registered Apple Developers can take advantage of great WWDC content.”

Although Apple has shared developer sessions from previous WWDC events, usually the company waits until after the show has closed before posting them up. This time around, there won’t be so much of a wait involved.

Apple hasn’t said whether it will be streaming the sessions live, or simply posting recordings faster, though the latter seems more likely. Much of the content discussed during WWDC is under NDA, and having the opportunity to edit out any particularly juicy details is probably something the Cupertino firm would like to keep.

One possibility for the change of heart is that Apple is moving to copy Google’s strategy with regards to absent developers. At Google I/O, the search giant’s own developer event, certain developer sessions are streamed live so that those not in attendance can learn alongside those swift or lucky enough to grab tickets.

For those not so interested in the developer content – or, at least, until it filters through to commercial products – the big news will be shared at Apple’s opening keynote. SlashGear will be there to bring you back all the details as they’re announced.

Apple’s WWDC Starts On June 10 With Focus On iOS 7, OS X

Apples WWDC Starts On June 10 With Focus On iOS 7, OS X

We’re about two months away from summer’s official start, which means not only will we be able to wear our no-longer fashionable jean shorts out in public, but it also means Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference, or WWDC, will soon be upon us. Apple has made the official announcement as their biggest conference of the year will take place in San Francisco from June 10 – 14.

Apple promises this year’s WWDC will give an in-depth look at the next version of iOS and OS X, which they certainly gave us a glimpse of both operating systems at last year’s WWDC. Last year’s WWDC also marked the launch of the MacBook Pro with Retina, which has many speculating the company will reveal a new Mac Pro soon.

Apple confirms WWDC 2013 on June 10-14

Apple‘s Worldwide Developers Conference, the WWDC 2013, will take place on June 10-14 the company has announced today, with tickets set to go on sale tomorrow, Thursday 25th April. The five day event, hotly-anticipated by developers and Apple fans alike, will consist of over than 100 technical sessions, but for many it’s the opening keynote – with its promise of new software and hardware news – that is most exciting.

Previous WWDC keynotes have seen new versions of iOS and OS X teased. At last year’s event, Apple revealed the MacBook Pro with Retina display, the company’s pixel-packed 15-inch notebook which replaced the 17-inch model at the pinnacle of the portable range.

For developers, the appeal of WWDC is the opportunity to get up close to Apple’s own engineering and coding experts. More than 1,000 will be in attendance, the company says, with a focus on both mobile and desktop software.

Apple also has its Design Awards, which highlight particularly successful iPhone, iPad, and Mac apps created by third-party developers.

Tickets are, if previous years are anything to go by, likely to be in hot demand, and will probably sell out in less than an hour. They go on sale from 10AM Pacific time, no matter where in the world you live, and are priced at $1,599 apiece. SlashGear will be at the opening keynote to bring back all the hardware and software news too, just in case you can’t get along yourself.

Apple confirms WWDC 2013 will take place June 10th to 14th, tickets go on sale tomorrow

This is one Apple event that’s fairly constant, but the company has confirmed today that the 2013 edition of its Worldwide Developers Conference — otherwise known as WWDC — will take place from June 10th to 14th at Moscone West in San Francisco. In a statement, Apple’s Phil Schiller says that its “developers have had the most prolific and profitable year ever, and we’re excited to show them the latest advances in software technologies and developer tools to help them create innovative new apps,” adding, “we can’t wait to get new versions of iOS and OS X into their hands at WWDC.” Not exactly a huge surprise there, but you can rest assured we’ll be there to cover that and anything else the company might have up its sleeve. Tickets are set to go on sale tomorrow.

Apple To Reveal New Mac Pro Revamp This Month

Apple To Reveal New Mac Pro Revamp This Month

Apple is expected to reveal a revamp of Mac Pro. The company’s desktop offering was last updated in June 2012 with new processors and greater RAM. Many essentials such as Thunderbolt, USB 3.0 and Serial ATA were not included. An entirely revamped Mac Pro offering is expected to be revealed later this month. Apparently the source has not divulged whether this Mac Pro revamp will be a tower, mini-tower or something else, but did mention that the announcement cloud “slip” in to May or June, around the time when Apple organizes its Worldwide Developers Conference. The source says that April announcement seems possible as of now.

Apple did say last year that a new Mac Pro model will arrive in 2013. When reached for comment, a company spokesperson said that Apple doesn not comment on rumors. For now the expected announcement of new Mac Pros is just a rumor. An European reseller said earlier this year that they had heard from Apple regarding the Mac Pro revamp being announced in a couple of months. For now, all of this is just a rumor and we can’t be sure of anything unless Apple officially confirms it.
