WWDC '07 sessions reveal focus on enterprise and switching developers
We reported earlier today that Apple has released the session schedules for WWDC '07, which will take place in San Francisco June 11-15. An analysis of the schedule from Joe Wilcox at eWeek's Microsoft Watch, however, has revealed some interesting tidbits on exactly what Apple has in store for their audience, which includes an estimated 1/3 who will be entirely new to the Mac. Particularly noteworthy is "Immersion Monday" which is entirely focused on introducing new developers, especially Windows devs, to the Mac platform. Another interesting area of focus that is apparently new to WWDC is on the enterprise, as Apple seems to be coming on strong with an entire track of Information Technology sessions and labs aimed at system admins, IT managers and content production professionals. Put another way: it sounds like Apple is going to be firing on all cylinders like many have been expecting. Perhaps even with a few iCylinders we aren't expecting (ba-dum-ching!). [via digg]
WWDC Student Scholarship deadline approaches
If you're hoping to go to WWDC on a student scholarship, time is running short. The WWDC scholarship offers a free ticket to WWDC with complete access to all tech sessions and special events, saving you somewhere in the neighborhood of $1600 (we previously wrote about the scholarship here). What's more, there's an all-day special event on the 10th of June just for student developers plus a career fair where you can meet hiring managers from many Mac development companies. The online application must be received by the 19th of March, i.e. any second now. Thanks, Nik.
