The weather is great here in San Francisco. It was sunny and warm on Tuesday. Back in my hometown of Nashville, it’s cold with two inches of snow. This is our third (or is it fourth?) snowfall of more than an inch of the white stuff — and that’s a rarity for Music City.

Sure, those of you who live in colder climes may laugh. But when you’re not used to very much snow, you’re not prepared to handle it. In fact, in Tennessee we just run on cars off in ditches when it starts snowing to avoid the rush.

The exhibit hall at Macworld opens today, so look for lots of coverage. Yesterday’s MacTech Boot Camp was a big hit with around 125 folks attending. And Macworld looks to be off to a good start. This year’s Macworld has purportedly seen growth of about 10% more exhibitors than last year, and the number of registered attendees is up as well.
