Google gave me an Android smartphone!

I just came back from Google Developer Day 2009, where I attended enlightening presentations about OpenSocial applications optimization, advanced Android programming, and how to push the limits of the Google Maps API, among others. I definitely recommend watching the videos when they come online. I ran into a lot of acquaintances and got introduced to very interesting people. As if it were not enough, Google offered me this shiny smartphone running Android!

Attending Google Developer Day 2009

Even though inscriptions closed months ago, today I finally managed to get what they call a "VIP invitation" for the Google Developer Day 2009 tomorrow at Pacifico Yokohama. I will skip the morning sessions because they look boring, but the afternoon session sounds very promising:
  • Life of an App Engine request
  • Java で動かす Google App Engine
  • Potential of the Social Web
  • OpenSocial in Japan
  • Google & Open Source
  • Performance Tips for Geo API mashups
  • Google Wave APIs
  • HTML5 により拓かれる次世代 Web
