Macworld - 1st Round

Well, I just wandered through the 1st Expo hall full of hundreds of exhibitors.

I met the creators of Missing Sync, one of my favorite products. It syncs every kind of phone with your mac. It's always fun to meet people who I follow via the online world.

I also walked by the big Microsoft booth. I'm going to go back in a bit and plead the case for tasks to sync between Entourage and Microsoft Exchange. You'd think with a business app, they'd have that figured out.

The Apple booth was a ton of fun to stop in and play with all the new products. The new iPhoto with facial recognition is pretty amazing. That'll save me so much time. Plus, I'm anxious to try out Garage Band's new tutorial for teaching guitar and piano with the boys. If we combine computers with music, Brendon will be in heaven!

I've seen everything here from mac-driven digital drums, to every peripheral device and cover there is...I feel a little out of place being one of the few without an iPhone though. :-)

I'm sitting here looking at the Mac Company store full of t-shirts and hats. It's calling to me, so I may have to outfit the family in Mac gear...


Adventures at MacWorld

I'm spending the day by myself at a haven for Techy Geeks...at least those who love Macs - MacWorld, San Francisco.

As I write, I'm surrounded by more macs, iPhones and iPods than I've ever seen...and, what's amazing to me is people are from every walk of life. Every age, every background...you name it.

I'm also hearing conversations about tech stuff that I have no idea how to interpret. :-)

I'm looking forward to a day just to wander, and, believe it or not...to listen. I try to take a day at the beginning of every year just to go off by myself and listen for the Spirit's voice for the coming year. He's been so good to us, and I've been sensing for some time that a new chapter for the Skor family is just around the corner. I'm anxious to hear what He has to say today as I wander and He and I have our ongoing dialogue throughout the day.

How much fun is this? I get to spend the day alone with my Heavenly Father AND enjoy geek gadgets galore!
