Apple Watch is set to debut at an event today in San Francisco. Here's how to follow along.

The day has finally arrived – Apple will announce when we can get our hands on the long-awaited Apple Watch.

The news will be part of an Apple event held Monday in San Francisco. Want to follow along? Good news: Apple will live-stream the event online. Plus, if rumors prove true, Apple may have a few extra surprises up its sleeve.

Apple will stream the event on Apple.com/live starting at 10 a.m. Pacific (1 p.m. Eastern). Note that you should make sure your software updates are up to date if you want to tune in.

“Live streaming video requires Safari 5.1.10 or later on OS X v10.6.8 or later; Safari on iOS 6.0 or later. Streaming via Apple TV requires second- or third-generation Apple TV with software 6.2 or later,” says Apple on the live stream site.

Apple has been characteristically quiet about what will be presented at the event. All we have so far is an invitation that says “Spring Forward” with a multicolored floral design spreading from a white Apple logo.

Of course, that hasn’t slowed the rumor mill. Apple will likely announce the launch date for its much-anticipated Apple Watch, as well as details about versions and pricing. Though information about the entry-level Apple Watch Sport has already been released (it is set to start at $350), industry watchers expect a few more designs, even ranging to a luxury edition watch priced at up to $5,000. Apple could also announce further third-party apps in order to excite developers and shoppers around Watch-specific applications.

The event is set to last about two hours, so it is likely that Apple will have something to tout beyond the Apple Watch. There has been a lot of buzz around a potential iTunes streaming service, but 9to5 Mac says that is getting bumped to the Worldwide Developer Conference this June. Instead, 9to5 Mac thinks it is likely that an updated MacBook Air is the most likely addition to the announcement lineup.

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
