Google I/O, like WWDC and other “developer conferences”, has become a stage for Google to announce important new innovations and set their direction for the year to come. Agree that this was impressively staged, and it’s nice to see them showing some leadership rather than playing catch-up. Also interested in what was NOT announced – rumours of an IaaS cloud platform don’t seem to have come to fruition, and Android@Home was notably absent too.
