Article introduction of Wulin.com (www.vevb.com): Android is absent! Google Developer Conference news collection.
On May 19, 2010, Google officially held a Google I/O conference at its headquarters in San Francisco, with more than 5,000 developers coming to participate. The first day of the press conference has officially ended. Below is the news of the press conference of the first day.
At the press conference on May 19, Google released: Chrome Web Store release; open source VP8 video encoding, release WebM media projects; Google Wave open registration; Google Buzz releases API; storage services for developers: Google Storage;
Chrome Web Store
Google officially released the Google Web Store, which provides support in more than 49 languages and can be used on Chrome and Chrome OS. The App Store includes free and paid web applications. There is no difference between Chrome Web Store and general Web applications, which means that Chrome is not limited to use.

Open source VP8 video encoding, publishing WebM media projects
Just when Flash and HTML5 were fighting each other, Google really encoded VP8 videos at the developer conference and provided them to all developers for free. It seems that HTML5 has another trump card. WebM includes the following applications:
Google WebM
1) VP8: High-quality video encoding, free authorization in BSD form
2) Vorbis: open source and widely used audio encoding
3) Video container based on Mastroska subset
Google Wave opens registration
Remember when Google Wave was first released? At that time, for the invitation of Google Wave, everyone could think about it. Now Google has announced that Google Wave is open to register. You just need to use your Google account to log in to Google Wave.
Google Wave is open for registration. (How many people are using it now?)
Google Buzz Release API
When Google hurriedly released Buzz, everyone speculated that it was Google to seize the Twitter market and users, but compared with Twitter's extensive API, Google Buzz seemed quite simple. Now Google has finally released the Google Buzz API, and it also supports update methods such as ActiStreams, Atom, AtomPub, JSON, OAuth, PubSubHubbub and other methods.

Google Storage
Google launched Google Storage, a network storage service for developers (actually, is this considered cloud storage? It was also compared with amzun's S3 at the press conference). Storage services facilitate developers to use the RESTful API to store their applications on the Storage server for sharing and multi-person collaboration.
Currently, Google Storage is only open to a small number of developers, providing 100G of free storage space and monthly data traffic is 300G.
Huh? What about Android 2.2? Is this Android update that everyone has been paying attention to? It seems that it did not appear at the first day of Google I/O. Don't panic. According to various signs, Android 2.2 will be released at the Google I/O conference, and the legendary Google TV will be released. On the Google Press page, we can discover what exactly will be the next day's Google I/O conference.
Android and Google TV?
summary:
Judging from the news collection on the first day, Google is dedicated to promoting its own web applications, hoping to expand its products. At the same time, in terms of Flash and HTML5's attitudes, although Google has ambiguous support for both, from the open source of VP8 and the launch of WebM, we can see that Google is actually more inclined to HTML5. And at the conference, Adobe's CTO was invited to show Dreamweaver's support for HTML5.
From Google Wave to Google Buzz, Google is constantly laying the foundation for Chrome OS, to the current WebM and Google Storage. It seems that the release of Chrome OS is just a matter of time.
