Lots of Project Tango + AR/VR presentations. I'm willing to bet the next Google/Nexus phones will have tech from Project Tango built in and become standard on future Android phones. Lots of apps/games could be built for it (and some that have been already built will debut during I/O). It could be one of those things that differentiates Androids from iPhones. Take a look at the 'Introducing Project Tango Area Learning' talk for May 18 for an example.

Cool: Talks about NDK, ART, and maybe just maybe, they will fix audio latency.

Not so cool: Game keynotes seem to keep spreading Play Services PR instead of talking about making games, available frameworks and tooling, like on Apple and Microsoft conferences.

Lots of Firebase - wild guess, but I assume Firebase support will be integrated in Android Studio extending/maybe replacing the current Cloud-Endpoints feature (which is unfortunate, because I use it extensively).

Hope we hear more from ATAP. They had some really interesting projects last year I'm hoping make it further towards market.

It doesn't look like they're really talking about anything new this year. A little bit about android auto but as far as I can tell, that's it.

I found a bug in Safari os x: don't be logged in, go to the schedule, expand one of the topics, click the plus sign and you'll get a message that says something like "log in to save" in the lower left. Now you can no longer click the window shade to close the popup, you have to click the 'Full Schedule" link.

I'm in love with the 2d/3d font and the way it animates both in the color cycling and number changing into one another. Its one of those things that I wish I would had thought of doing (knew how to do)

I wonder if I'm going to be able to download the version of Android which was announced at last year's Google I/O before they announce another one this year?

Don't ever change, Google.

They are having it outside at Shoreline? oh boy.

Is the entire event going to be outside? Or are they going to use a tent in the vast parking lot space like they do for festivals?

Umm .. how do you get a ticket?

I can't find ARA in the schedule :(

Hi, I am "the peace guy" (just google that phrase for more info), and I am now based in Mountain View, where I live off of the land. By the way, I created something called "Linux on the Web" -- find it at http://lotw.co

I got here a week ago from Florida, and I've already done my peace guy thing at the Google campus (twice), at Lytton Plaza in downtown Palo Alto, and on the Stanford campus. My thing is to literally make people fall madly in love with me as I dance and hold up the peace sign and say whatever the hell comes to mind.

Put simply, I am here to turn the world absolutely upside-down in a way that Bernie Sanders could only dream about.

My point is that capitalism, as we know it, is pretty much "game over". Google won it, and no one else should even try to take them on (that especially includes you, Apple).

As such, I would love to personally give my project to Larry Page in order to see how we can start up the greatest open source project in history. I would like Google to start supporting actual live/work communities in various parts of the world, kind of like neo-hippie tech communes (or kibbutzes if you like that term better), that are very far from traditional tech centers (think Amazon jungle rather than Amazon.com).

I would love to get a bunch of free-spirited types of people to help me work the I/O event. Since I've gotten pretty good at living on the streets here, I can give people plenty of advice.

Both of the times that I've been at the Googleplex, I've had Google security guards try to law down the law at me, only for me to lay down the law back at them... very, very loudly. After all, I am not some random jackass. I am literally "the peace guy" since if Google says so, then it must be true.

I am making friends with everyone around here, from other homeless people to local business owners and everything in between. I even just got done making friends with a couple of particularly friendly grade schoolers who actually initiated a conversation with me.

To be brutally honest about myself, I am a mad genius and I am mad sexy. Even though I am homeless here in Silicon Valley, the women/girls (and many guys) literally cannot stop looking at me (it is quite different than where I came from, in that everyone was just too "proper" to act like they were interested in anyone else).

My twitter is https://twitter.com/The_Peace_Guy (fair warning it is slightly NSFW at the moment).

huh?

Hasn't this been announced for a while? Is there a reason this got submitted? Did the schedule just get released or something? Title should probably clarify.
