This would be so much fun if we were actually able to watch a live feed of the keynote instead of text updates on websites. There's lots of squares we might miss filling in if we can't actually watch the keynote.

Shouldn't "Steve in turtleneck & jeans" be in the centre square?

Awesome! I'm taking the day off work to do my MWSF fun activities. (I'm not missing much.. minimum wage!)
The boyfriend and I will be playing this via iChat video conference. :)

If the keynote was at 9pm instead of 9am, this would be the best drinking game.

Does the first link not work for anybody else? http://iskub.sippan.se/bingo/

Nope, first link doesn't work for me either. It just sits there until the browser times out.

What about "Boom"? That should be on the card at least four times!

You forgot to add Steve saying "Boom!"

paul, we wanted to do a live feed, but it isn't allowed ;)

There is a "boom" square... there's 50 squares in the pool, but only 25 of them is picked out of it.

I'm the author of the second of those. :)
I just released 1.0.1 a few minutes ago, which simply adds a few more predictions, bringing my total from 178 to 186 (including “Boom”, the iPod phone, Steve in turtleneck+jeans, and the tablet Mac). The other implementation has 50, as noted on its website. In addition, mine can be printed (it works by generating a PDF); the other cannot. I will concede that the other one has more Aqua goodness to it. ;)
Keep in mind that both implementations are randomized. Just because you don't see something in the screenshot above, or in the board that you get, doesn't mean it isn't available in the app. This is especially true of my implementation.
And Scott F (re: Steve in turtleneck+jeans in the center square): Indeed. Too bad it isn't 100% anymore, since he wore that shiny shirt at the “It's Showtime” event. Still, I may do that for WWDC 2007…

And I'm the author of the first, at least the programming part. :-)
I added print functionality some days ago, but I don't remember if it's in the one att iskub.sippan.se/bingo/ . If you want to use the print feature, use the most recent release at http://hannesp.se/hemlis/MW_BINGO.zip
(And yes, I know that the title bar of the window is printed to, but I don't feel for fixing it. Because it's Cocoa, this was a 5-second-fix, which consists of making a few mouse clicks. Take it, or leave it :-P)

If you’re itching for randomized bingo cards of your very own, I created an online card randomizer that uses the same set of strings as Peter Hosey’s app mentioned on John Siracusa’s blog.
