A couple of sites — including Pocket Lint<\/a> and Steve Rubel’s Micropersuasion<\/a> — are running with the “news” that Steve Jobs’ keynote for Macworld has been leaked on Wikipedia<\/a>. The only news is that anything with the word “Apple” in it becomes blog fodder leading up to the keynote, including old rumours.<\/p>\n

The rumour about the Wikipedia leak is almost a week old now, having popped up on my friend Ian Betteridge’s blog Technovia on January 10<\/a> as well as a couple of other places<\/a>.

Seriously, if someone was going to leak the keynote (assuming that would even happen), would they post it to a Wikipedia talk page? Why not send it to one of the many Apple sites? Some have argued that the ThinkSecret case<\/a> made the regular rumour blogs too wary of printing Apple stuff, but I find that hard to believe. And one line in the keynote made my hoax antenna stand up: it says the DVD player on the Macbook “pops open when the eject button is pressed.” Don’t they all do that?<\/p>\n
