New York Times: What Developers Think of the WWDC 2011 Keynote

Ken Case, CEO of The Omni Group : I'm really looking forward to updating our document-based apps (OmniOutliner, OmniGraffle . . . ) to leverage iCloud's document syncing.
David Frampton, founder of Majic Jungle Software, which makes Chopper and Chopper 2 : AirPlay Mirroring. I wasn't expecting that, as it seems a pretty amazing technical achievement. Not sure on the details yet, but it could be a big deal for gaming. ...

I'm always excited when Apple is doing something new!
There's a lot to be excited about. I have my eyes set on the Reminder feature; been looking for something like that.
