The 2-day event held by Google in San Francisco is the ultimate Google gathering. While this is most definitely a developer-friendly conference, where developers of all types can learn to make better use of Google’s services and tools, it is also used as a showcase for Google to unveil new products, features for those products, and get all Google-y.
As you know from our quick preview post, we are expecting a heavy dose of new Android in the form of Android M, lots of wearable and Android Auto talk, Google in your home, and more.
