What is Google IO? Well, let's start with the geeky nerdy definition:
Google I/O is an annual developer-focused conference held by Google in San Francisco, California. Google I/O features highly technical, in-depth sessions focused on building web, mobile, and enterprise applications with Google and open web technologies such as Android, Chrome, Chrome OS, Google APIs, Google Web Toolkit, App Engine, and more. Google I/O was started in 2008. The "I" and "O" stand for input/output, and "Innovation in the Open". The format of the event is similar to that of the Google Developer Day.
Blah blah... Let me put it another way... It's the hottest conference that brings hardware, software, experience and networking all together in one place. In a single sentence, Google IO is about what you'll be using next!
You see Google IO is strictly for developers, the very folks that create and dream of products and services to offer you. The theme isn't "what can we bring the end-user" it's more like, "developers, here are the tools for you to serve the end-user with ground breaking technology".
Anyway... Why should you care? What does this huge gathering in Cali. have to do with you? Check out some of the hot topics from our friends over at Tech Radar and find out...
