WWDC Event to Witness New OS Launch with Facebook Integration, New Maps and More

Going by the past records, Apple's WWDC event is one of the industry's key events. The highly anticipated announcement which the industry experts are betting upon is the launch of their next operating system, the much awaited iOS 6.

Adding on to the launch of the new operating system rumor mill and its exciting features, a recent buzz is widespread in the media world that iOS 6 is supposed to feature a proper Facebook integration , a redesign of the AppStore, iTunes Store and iBookstore, and even a new AirDrop file sharing trickery, courtesy of Wi-Fi Direct, which should also be present in the next iPhone.

Other recent rumors also have hinted an introduction to new Maps and Photos apps plus an improved camera interface, reports 9to5mac.

The freshest rumors have come amid the discussions that Facebook integration was not introduced by Apple last year, hence this year the possibility of Facebook integration in the latest release of iOS is high.

The integration would include a system-wide sign-in that would allow iOS users to share content from any apps on Facebook without further identification.

Earlier rumors were also rife that unveiling of a new Apple HDTV is also a possibility with a smart, connected TV running iOS much like the similarly named Apple TV. But that aside, the mobile iOS will undoubtedly be one of the highlights of the event in San Francisco.

The other rumored changes include redesigned AppStore, iTunes store and iBookstore. Also supposed upgrades rumored earlier include an upgraded Photos app, which will include an option to share a photo directly from the iCloud.

The Camera app is supposed to include features popular on third-party cam apps - such as filters and effects. And finally, the Maps application on iOS is reportedly getting a new, mega-cool 3D view mode.
