In the press room at Macworld there was a little lobby with alphabetized buckets where you could pick up press kits from the various vendors. that is an exercise in wastefulness, as many of the press kits are glossy folders filled with photocopies and CD’s.

Now, I realize the coordination mandatory to put all that on a separate DVD or USB drive would be immense, so I’m not blaming Macworld/IDG here, but surely there’s got to be a better way. I’ve made a gallery of the leftover press releases, CD’s and cases

I was left with– and I didn’t even take everything! I additionally had to discard all the covering folders for what I did grab, considering I didn’t want to pay $60 additional for the additional weight in my luggage (no kidding, it was like an additional 10 lbs. of junk). Sadly, that stuff got trashed in my hotel room, and I’m certain it didn’t get recycled. possibly next year the dream of a “paperless” Macworld can be realized…
