This bit of news fits well for developers who are developing for Google Android or any other developments that have Google in mind, thats fanboyism speaking.

The Google I/O developer conference will be held on May 28th and 29th in San Fransisco and will be showcasing 52 of some of Google's top employees to speak at the event plus five experts from outside of Google. As you can see, it will be an interesting even to be at and it is awfully sad that I will not be able to attend as I am planning on learning java.

Here are some of the speakers that will be chatting away at the event:

Dan Bornstein

He continues to contribute to its implementation along with several coworkers. He studied computational linguistics as an undergrad, earning a B.S. in Cognitive Science from Brown University. Dan lives in San Francisco, where he particularly enjoys participating in the experimental electronic music scene.
