速報的に。Macworld Conference & Expoのkeynoteが行われ、噂になっていたiWebなどいくつかの製品の発表があったようです:
Macworld Expo Live Keynote Coverage (Macworld)
iWebについては、
The rumors were true: There’s also a new application bundled with iLife ‘06 called iWeb. iWeb has been developed to help iLife users share their content — photos, blogs, music, movies and more — through Web publishing. The integrated media browser provides you with direct access to the content managed by your other iLife applications.
とのことで、残念ながらDan Woodの懸念通りになってしまったようですね(参考記事:CNET Japan 「不運な偶然の一致か--アップルの『iWeb』発表を懸念する『Watson』開発企業」)。
ちなみに同じkeynoteでは、FMチューナー内蔵の新iPodや、初のIntelプロセッサ搭載Macとなった「iMac」と「MacBook Pro」が発表されたとのこと。製品や講演の写真は明日のニュース記事で確認できるでしょう。
<追記>
と思ったら、もう既にEngadgetでlive updateが上がってました:
Steve Jobs keynote live from Macworld 2006 (Engadget)
相変わらずSteve Jobsはカッコイイ講演をしたみたいで。ちなみにiWebについてはこんなスピーチをしてます:
"We want to share these things ... increasingly, we want to share them over the Internet ... increasingly, a lot of us want to build a web site. So today we are introducing a sixth app into the ilife suite to let us do exactly that. To share photos ... video podcasts ... music ... blogs ... we call this new app iWeb." Isn't that name, um, a bit recursive?
(中略)
"So, we built a website in a few minutes here that's got four pages, my photo album, podcasts, and my blog ... this is what iWeb is about.. Rich media to share with all of your family."
