Want to go to Google I/O? Who doesn’t? But doesn’t look like you’re going to be attending unless you’ve already registered. Google’s VP of Engineering Vic Gundotra Tweeted earlier today that tickets were sold out in 59 minutes. In 2010, the tickets took 50 days to sell out, and 2009 took three whole months.
Not for you.
What’s changed? Android, and Chrome too. Judging by the early sessions, a lot of stuff can be built on these two platforms. Sessions such as “Storing your Data on Google’s Cloud”, “Building Web Apps for Google TV” and “Re-introducing the Chrome Dev Tools to Web App Developers” are included in the early list of sessions.
It also doesn’t hurt that the investment in going to Google I/O almost guarantees you some Google hardware. Last year the attendees were gifted with a couple of Android phones. What’s stopping Google from giving away the latest Android superphone and a Cr-48 to everyone there?
