Google I/O
Google I / O is a developer conference by Google, which in San Francisco, California is held annually. For the first time Google I / O took place in 2008. I / O stands for both innovation in the open as well as for I / O (input and output ). New features, hardware and software from Google will be discussed at the Google I / O, such as Android or the Chromebooks, the conference explicitly aimed at technically experienced developers.
In addition to the presentations, there are parallel " sessions" (meetings) the specific topics to deepen its aspects in detail to discuss. Therefore, Google also allows for only about 5,000 developers at the Google I / O. For this reason the tickets are already sold on a regular basis after a few hours, since the Google I / O is considered as the most important date of information on new Google products.
