[Open] Day 2: Win a registration invite for Google I/O!

[H3AD8HOT]

My favorite announcement from a previous Google I/O is Google Glass. If it wasn't for Glass I would not be an Explorer and writing Glass content on GoogleGlassFans.com.

 

[Salviati]

Google Glass is hard to beat - especially for those in the audience! Apart from that, I'll have to go with Android@Home - although it has yet to make its presence known outside of I/O.

 

[Hugo Loza]

Each I/O announcement was amazing! But for shure the best one from my point of view was about Glass since it changed our realty in many ways...

 

[Mark Shih]

Google Glass.

 

[Peter Schmitz]

I loved the session on and semi-secret announcement of Google ADK at I/O 2011. The first and second gen boards were awesome and the team behind was crazy passionate, loved every minute of it.

 

[craigisakson]

My favorite announcement was from last year when they announced the location based additions the Google Play Services along with activity aware. Cool stuff that was fun to implement.

 

[jeremyseeba]

Most personally useful... Google Play Music but the Android Graphics Performance session are always the most interesting.

 

[hamidsani]

Google glass was the amazing but at the sametime Android is what I'm really into. So I have to go with Android Studio!

The one I liked the most was Google Plus. There were a lot of naysayers, and still are, but Google+ brought a refreshing take on a social stream, Circles was a beautiful interaction at the time, and its focus on Photos won me over. Though I always saw it for what I think it is, a new unified approach to a Google Identity, one that began to unify all its products. I for one don't mind it, but I know I speak as a fanboy. Still a G+ fan, and use it regularly.

Google Glass was an absolutely mind blowing announcement. Of course, I saw the "One Day..." video before it was shown in person, but it was hard to understand exactly how it worked until they demonstrated it at I/O. Now that I own a pair, I'd love to further my current development for Glass with the aid of new Google APIs... Didn't get picked for I/O in the regular selection stage or through the hidden easter eggs after days of snooping.. A chance to go to I/O this year would be awesome!

My favorite announcement was Google Glass. I still feel that this is an excellent piece of wearable tech and find it silly that so many people seem to be against it with their "Glasshole" movement. It's a good piece of tech and will allow several professions to be more productive (such as doctors, etc)

Good luck to all and, either way, I will be attending the Dev conference virtually or physically

My favorite moment from google i/o was the google play devices because i actually prefer them over the regular versions they are easily hacked like the nexus devices

 

[ecaggiani]

My favorite announcement from previous Google I/O's was probably the Nexus 7. It was the first real usable tablet with a great form factor and affordable price. Though I got one for free that year, I immediately bought one for the wife as well and she still uses it daily.

 

[Telomir]

Was Google Glass for me - now having scored a pair, I'm intrigued and have started android developing as a result. I love Google!

 

[Brandon Beckley]

I was very happy with the Google Play Music All Access, the announcement of Android Studio and the Google Play for Education. But Glass was the biggest.

 

[Jason Raffi]

My favorite was a particular talk about Volley. I don't know if that was technically "the announcement" of the technology - but it was the first time I heard of it and immediately dug into it.

 

[shamu11]

Definitely Android 4.1 Jellybean announced at the 2012 Google I/O. I especially liked Google Now with the voice actions overhaul. I was so excited to test that out as soon as I saw it! Can't wait to see what is in store this year!

 

[keith2k1]

My favorite moment was the announcement of the Q. Too bad it didn't do what it could have done... I would still take one.

 

[beardboy]

I don't like it when the companies get up on stage and take shots at the competition, but I have to admit that when I saw this it made me laugh.



But since this isn't an announcement I will say Google Play Services. Unlocking software and api updates from OS updates was HUGE.

Google glass skydiving demo was awesome, too choose just one favorite.
