Macworld 2012: Conference at a crossroads

One of the many representatives for iPhone holder, FlyGrip.

Just inside the Expo entrance.

HyperJuice chargers in an array of colors.

iBallz for your iPad.

DriveSaver's eye catching display.

The iDangle and iPole - because women dangle, and men have poles.

Doxie's mascot. for your nightmares tonight.

iRig Mixer.

KB Covers.

MacKeeper - no one on the expo floor could remember what their product was when I asked.

But everyone remembered they gave out condoms.

Products were crammed so tightly in spots it was difficult to tell where one booth ended and another began.

MacKeeper was keeping it classy.

The HyperJuice Plug.

Like every year, case bling was not hard to find.

The oxygen bar was a busy place.

The benefits of oxygen.

The Saddest Booth Babe In The World.

The atmospheric upstairs Music Studio.

Upstairs sessions had striking views of San Francisco.

South Park Studios had a fantastic fan art gallery.

The South Park gallery had original 1997 storyboards that were made of construction paper.

The upstairs coworking space was very comfortable and friendly.

The whiteboard encouraged visitors do a little self-promotion.
