THE DEMISE OF MACWORLD EXPO?

The article discusses the highlights of the 2010 Macworld Expo that was held at the North Hall of the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California. The event reportedly had 20,000 attendees and 250 exhibitors, compared with 48,000 and 500, respectively in 2008. The absence of Apple Inc., which turned its back on Macworld in late 2008, has allegedly cast shadow on the event's usual liveliness. Outside of the expo, Macworld 2010 launched many attractions to invite first-time attendees, including a Late Night With David Pogue segment.
