September 1, 2010 - By Justin E. Gehrke
Update: The Apple Keynote has concluded, and GSL has posted it’s summary of the events for reader review.
It’s September 1, 2010. For many a dedicated technophile, it marks the arrival of yet another Apple Keynote. Slated to be delivered by the famous (and often infamous) Steve Jobs, this one has been dubbed a special, Apple music event. Will the announcements include $0.99 television episode rentals from iTunes, an iPod Nano Touch, a redesigned iPod Touch with a front facing camera, or a cloud-based iTunes? As usual, you can be among the millions who find out first thanks to the miracle of live blogging.
The normal suspects like Gizmodo and Tech Crunch are on the live blogging case. This time around, though, Apple is even providing a live (albeit, proprietarily limited) stream. Of course, Wednesday is also a workday for many, and let’s face it. Employers these days like to limit the http:// love with webfilters. So, as always, you’ll need a few links handy, to make sure you don’t miss a moment due to an on-the-spot site block or bandwidth over-utilization by the site covering the event.
