Macworld Jobs Keynote - Which Site Did The Best Live Blogging?

This morning Steve Jobs did his keynote at Macworld where he was unveiling new technologies and software. I paid close attention, while watching four different live blogs of the event. These included Engadget , Gizmodo, Macworld, and Macrumors. I wanted to evaluate who did the best job covering the events.

  • Gizmodo - Decent content, best photography, but its server traffic was overloaded so refreshing content was too SLOWWWWW to download
  • Engadget - Its site was slow but had great content
  • Macworld - Basic. content was there, but nothing to send home about
  • Macrumor - This is the overall winner. This site was fast. It had an automatic update feature that kept me from having to hit refresh (thank you). Its photos (a bit blurry though) also auto refreshed. Content was decent, but basic.

Were you following any Macworld live blogs as it was happening? Which ones did you watch? What were your thoughts on the blogging and Steve Jobs Keynote?

One Comment

I normally follow conferences using Engadget because there writting is not as biased and over all is more professional. But Engadget and AOL (their parent company) were having server outages like crazy so I went to macrumorslive.com which was awesome. I didn’t have to click refresh or F5 every two minutes, didn’t have to worry about ads (with the exception of macheist.com), and the pictures were on the side instead of in the same location as the text (means you don’t have to scroll up and down a lot). For future Apple conferences, I will definitely be using macrumorslive.com.

What Do You Think?
