The Apple WWDC Live Keynote started at 10:00 am Pacific time in San Francisco California.

Steve Jobs hit the stage exclaiming all 5,200 attendees who were at the Keynote and tickets that had sold out in less than 2 hours.

Steve Jobs said that there a a few things we should talk about including the "OS X Lion, iOS 5, and some kind of interesting new cloud stuff."

While Steve Jobs is on stage, he explains how the Macs have been doing extremely well over the years and how sales are almost 3/4 notebooks at this point, far outpacing desktop sales

Phil Schiller goes up on stage to explain more about the OS X Lion. Phil explains that the OS X Lion is "a major release with over 250 new features. If you'd like we can go over every one of them today."

Phil shows an amazing feature of the OS X Lion that includes Multi-Touch He shows the multi-touch tap-to-zoom, pinching, two-finger swiping- "all with an incredible, physical realism that's never been possible in a PC operating system before."

Next up, Phil shows full screen applications.

With OS X Lion, developers will be able to make their apps run in full-screen more easily.

Phil shows through Safari, iMovie, and dozens of other standard apps. Phil also shows a feature known as Mission Control. With Mission Control, you are able to see all your apps and all the documents you're working on. And you can get to all your spaces up top, multiple views of apps, and you can get to all your widgets on the upper-left.

According to Phil, "It's almost like task-switching in WebOS or QNX on the BlackBerry PlayBook, if you're familiar with those".

At the WWDC Keynote 2011, Phil is back with the mac app store saying "you can get your software right from the comfort of your home on your Mac."

The Mac App Store is now the e #1 channel for buying PC software. It's ahead of Best Buy, Walmart, and Office Depot. The App Store is now built-in to Lion. They are also adding in-app purchases, push notifications, and a built-in sandboxing mode to boost security is also added.

Resume is another feature included in the OS X Lion. Phil states, "Now when you launch an application in Lion it brings you right back to where you left off." This includes windows, selections, tools, and also highlighted text that appear the same way as left them.

Autosave is another great feature included in the OS X Lion. "The one time you might forget to save what you're doing, something goes wrong Why can't the computer help you? That's what Lion does." Lion will automatically save the document for you without you having to do anything.

Phil further explains "A completely new version of Mail in Lion. It's beautiful." In the new version of Mail in Lion there are two or three-column view, snippets on the left, and a favorites bar to get to your hottest folders.

The OS X Lion will be available to all Mac users in July for only 29.99- right from the Mac App Store.
