The Apple World Wide Developer's Conference starts, effectively, tonight. At least, badging will be open this evening and there are a series of special events tomorrow.

I'm heading to San Francisco in a few hours to settle in to my hotel room for the week. I am speaking several times throughout the week and am involved in a bunch of other sessions and events. It will be quite the show. Tiger is simply jam packed with cool new APIs for developers to leverage and being able to focus a developer conference on leveraging production quality APIs will be a welcome change!

The festivities begin this evening with a sojourn to Tommy's Mexican Restaurant.
