I am really kind of sorry about this post. If you are anything like me, you have already read a billion and a half blog posts about Apple and WWDC. I would not even consider myself a total Apple fanatic and fanboy, I just like their product and way of life. I just really could not resist with all the announcements at WWDC the other day. In hope not to bore you to death, I will try to make this blogcast as fun as possible. Let’s give FAQ format a try.

Q: Did I watch the live blog?
A: Yes, Mac Rumors Live.

Q: Am I going to get a new 3G iPhone?
A: Yes, for my birthday (June 21). I am planning to wait in line on July 11.

Q: Did I listen to that live audio stream on UStream?
A: No, I was not able.

Q: 1) Do I use .Mac, and 2) Am I going to use MobileMe?
A: I do have a .Mac account. Have I ever used it, no. I have not even used it for spam mail. Will I get MobileMe? Undecided. Comment to tell me what you think, if you have a opinion.

Q: Do I think that Apple’s keynote was a touch boring after the first 20ish minutes?
A: Yes, way too many 3rd-party applications. I mean, I like how there are going to be many, but did they really have to announce that many at the keynote. A little boring perhaps…

Q. Exactly how many Apple WWDC-related blog posts have I read in the last few days?
A: Countless, from Mac News Weekly to Mahalo Daily to View from a Farley to FryBlog to Chris Pirillo (never mind ), just to name a few. Then there are the spoofs, not as many but twice as satisfying. Here is my second favorite. However, this is my favorite by far. You MUST WATCH IT (only less than a minute long).

You know, I use it for the same reason! What a cawinkidink!

Q: What will happen to Apple in 10 years?
A: I am not sure, tell me what you think by commenting below!

Thanks for reading and/or listening to iRi. If you want to support us, all you need to do is buy some quality iRi Merchandise from the store! I am still working out what to do for the RSS feed; thanks for being patient.

100 pins later, I am talking to you now. I have pins from everywhere–major sporting events, vacations, clubs, anything you can imagine.

How does Riley get the pins? one might ask. Well, the answer to that would be that I get them from anyone–my dad, my friends, and some I even buy for myself.

The best place from where to get pins, for me, has always been the airport. With new TSA rules and regulations, many airport gift shops cannot sell pins anymore. This is good and bad. It means less new pins for me, but more value of the pins that I have!

Now, veering to a totally different topic, I went to a NY Mets game the other day (by the way, they lost). In the Shea Stadium/Mets gift shop, there was a really cool thing they liked to call a “Pin Trading Center.” There, you could “Take a pin [and] leave a pin” (similar with pennies). I think it is a great idea (even though it is only for MLB pins). I just think that this is a cool idea.

Hey, while you’re at it, why don’t ya’ Go RISE Up?

That is the cool tidbit of the day. Now for advertisements:

-Buy iRi Merchandise and support iRi. The stuff is still pre-markup, so buy it while it’s good and cheap!

-Watch our UStream show, iRi Live, where you can watch as Riley produces an episode on iRi. For more information, visit the “Live” section at the top of the page.

-We are still working out problems with iTunes and PodPress, but you can still bookmark us and subscribe to our feed (see the top right sidebar).

-Finally, just tell EVERYONE about the blog!
