The annual Macworld Expo kicked off this morning, with new versions of new versions of iLife and iWork being introduced. Also, the 17-inch MacBook Pro will get a unibody enclosure makeover. (That is to say, it will be less than an inch thick, making it the world’s most anorexic 17-inch notebook to date. Oh, and it will continue to sell for $2,799.) more ›

Jonathan Winston of Bikescape sends us this fury-inducing image he caught while wandering the catacombs of the Macworld Expo. It's a "baseball cap mounted iPhone with a handy plastic magnifying strip. Just right for watching youtube while walking down Market Street! more ›

Good Lord, what blog isn't over at Moscone Center today, getting moist over Steve Jobs? (We would be there, too, but it's positively glacial outside today. Burr.) Anyway, for those of you who care, here are some choice live-bloggy links to today to Macworld Expo 2008. Today, in case you're living under a rock (or have a life) is Steve Jobs keynote speech, and he just announced the holy presence of the new MacBook Air, "the world’s thinnest notebook." What, no iUnicorn? We have been hoping to see for quite some time. Maybe next year. more ›

• The Sound of Young America Live: Live public radio featuring Jesse Thorn, Morgan Murphy, Merlin Mann, Danny Hoch, and Bucky Sinister perform le stand-up hot. Zach Rogue (of Rogue Wave) provides the music. It's indie rock and comedy all rolled into one. Ta-da! Oh, and it's part of SF Sketchfest, so you know it's good. Show starts at 8 p.m. at the Eureka Theatre; $10.
• BiFriendly Social: A bisexual coffee klatch for men and women who lean on both sides of the fence. (No, not for you alterafag Manhunter subscribers who claim bisexuality only in effort to entice seemingly straight men, but for authentic bi guys. Wherever they may be.) No set topic, just an old-fashion chat with strangers all juiced up on caffeine. Or whatever. Anyway, it goes from 7:30 p.m.- 10 p.m. at Church Street Cafe (formerly Muddy Waters); free.
• Tonight's Macworld Expo Afterparties: Leave the goatees in the bathroom sink. Please.

Can you feel it? The Macworld Expo 2008 approaches. Shhh, you might scare it. more ›

We were just kicking back to watch our new Mac mini-based PVR announced at last month's MacWorld Expo, until we realized that it doesn't exist. This isn't meant as just an accusation of ThinkSecret.com's "sources," just a cautionary tale: there's the truth, there's what rumor sites confirm will happen, and every once in a while, they're the same thing. more ›

The MacWorld Expo is going on all week at Moscone Center, and there's been all kinds of speculation going on about the internets concerning what Steve Jobs was going to unveil at his opening keynote address this morning. Rumors ranged from the "definite" unveiling of a new Mac mini-based home media PC (and we chomped on that rumor like a bass), to the "unlikely" announcement of a new Apple-branded HDTV. more ›

The MacWorld Expo 2006 isn't due to start until the second week of January, so the Apple rumor sites are already hard at work trying to ruin the surprise. more ›

The SFist Tech Labs staff is back from last week's big holiday — the launch of the Xbox 360. Oh yeah, and Thanksgiving, too. Our plan to stand in line at Best Buy for 30 hours to follow some poor woman home and steal an Xbox at gunpoint failed, unfortunately, but there's still hope! more ›
