Google I/O recap

While I wasn’t at the Google Developer’s Conference this week in a Fez-o-rama capacity I did indeed wear my Android Fez there. What can I say, it is a comfortable hat and seemed to be the appropriate fez to don. Just ask the Bug Droid over there. The conference took place at the Moscone Center...
