      Hashem, Google Developer ProgramsI'm excited to announce
      
Google I/O
      2009, our two-day developer event that will take place May 27-28, at the Moscone Center in San
      Francisco. Last year, over 3,000 developers participated in I/O and they attended 90+ sessions
      across all of our developer products. This year, much of our content will feature 
Android, 
App Engine,
      
Chrome,
      
GWT, 
AJAX APIs
      and more. To give you an idea, here are a few of the sessions:
 - App Engine, Offline processing on App Engine: a look
      ahead
 
-  Android, Supporting multiple devices with one
      binary
 
- Chrome, Developing extensions for Google
      Chrome
 
- GWT, The Story of your Compile: reading the
      tea leaves of the GWT compiler for an optimized future 
 
- AJAX
      APIs, Using AJAX/RESTful APIs on Mobile Native Apps
 
- OpenSocial, Building a Business with Social Apps
 
- Geo APIs, Building scalable Geo applications
 
We've published a selection of the 
session abstracts but check back as we'll be adding more sessions over
      the next couple months.
At I/O, you'll have a chance to interact directly
      with the engineering teams who work on our APIs and developer products. There will be dozens
      of in-depth technical sessions that focus on how to write better applications using Google and
      open technologies. For developers who are working on business applications, we've expanded our
      sessions and demos on those topics as well. And we'll have plenty of opportunities for the
      developer community to demo apps that use the latest web and mobile
      technologies.
We're working hard to make this event insightful, useful,
      and fun! Visit the 
Google I/O website to learn more and 
register.
      Space is limited so make sure you reserve your spot early. As a bonus, you'll get a hard copy
      of the 
Google Chrome Comic book if you register by
      May 1.
Like last year, Google I/O will be followed by Developer Days that
      will take place in various countries around the world. Keep an eye out for an announcement
      with details on dates and locations.
Looking forward to seeing you at
      I/O!
