At Google I/O (just 2 months away!), we're excited to bring back a series of
sessions called fireside chats. Fireside chats are smaller, intimate sessions where Google
teams will talk about major developments with their product, what's in store for developers,
and spend most of the time answering burning questions from the audience.
