Someone was asking about a liveblog earlier, the link to Ars is up.

http://live.arstechnica.com/google-io-2015-keynote-liveblog/

 

[FerranMG]

Cool, thanks!
I wanted a reliable liveblog, but two people already recommended ArsTechnica, so I'll check them out.

I used to love The Verge's Apple liveblogs, but the last few have been very bad, I couldn't stand the writers' despise towards what they were seeing.

I'm glad this starts at 5:30pm BST, means I can get home from work and watch it. Praise googey.

1 hour to go! (Oh and Android Pay seems certain, there's been a press leak already)

If their coming phones have a fingerprint sensor and come with a fingerprint API-enabled Android M that's going to be pretty compelling as a person with a Nexus 5 like me.

Seems like the rumoured Huawei Nexus will have a fingerprint sensor.

 

[RoyalLaFlame]

This won't be live streamed?

EDIT: Forget it. Found it on the OP.

 

[Futureman]

is there any rumor to screen size on the next Nexus? Are we never getting a sub-5" again?

 

[darkwing]

they better update Android Wear quick, where did the double tap to open Google speak now go??

 

[Hasney]

This won't be live streamed?

It will be, on YouTube.

Yeah, found the link in the OP.

But thanks anyway.

5.2" for the LG one, 5.7" for the Huawei one.

 

[JordanKZ]

It's still there, you just have to tap then swipe right. I think it was a stupid idea too, search should be first, apps second.

(Saying that, my moto 360 is still on 5.0.2...)

 

[AlexMeloche]

A new Chromecast?! Just got mine a few months ago, almost didn't used it.

 

[dkeane]

The pong game on the screens is cool!

 

[AndyD]

5.2" for the LG one, 5.7" for the Huawei one.

Not bad on the LG one, like a G2 size phone not a G4.

Getting the Nexus 6 in a couple weeks. Do you think it'll get a price drop?

 

[thenexus6]

This music is... not mind numbingly stupid like most other events play before the event kicks off.

 

[neogaffer1]

Probably not

 

[kami_sama]

Where to watch it?

 

[Symphonia]

15 minutes, people. Hoping to see Android M in some form, and confirmation of a new Nexus phone.

 

[Hasney]

Shamu is already out, guys.

 

[neogaffer1]

Where to watch it?

Dam sucks at Pong. Hopefully he didn't mean Dan and messed that up too.

 

[neogaffer1]

AP got way worse seats than Ars Technica. Guessing Google is holding a grudge against them for all the leaks they do

I dunno man, Ron Amadeo was the 'real' teardown guy before he went to Ars. He should be at the back now, he probably should even get a seat.

 

[D4Danger]

some people still wearing Google glass.

there's no hope for them.

you have to swipe twice right now, pretty crazy, the one handling the UI should be fired

Highlight so far - people playing with their telephones.

 

[……forgetit]

Everyone looks like they belong in one of my classes......

 

[strikeselect]

so many macbooks in the audience

where are all the chromebook pixels?

 

[Majine]

Nexus 6 should be classified as a Selfie stick for these events.

 

[Wreav]

I present the first GIF of I/O.

It's Silicon Valley so Pixels are probably in the garbage.

 

[thenexus6]

I think the cameraman has a thing for that girl with the Motorola.

 

[Toki767]

This is a very fancy setup. Google I/O keynotes never looked this nice.

 

[Bboy AJ]

What will Google copy from Apple today

 

[TheAbsolution]

The pong screen is fucking cool

 

[Kinitari]

It's really different watching I/O as a developer than when I watched it as a non-developer.

 

[……forgetit]

I heard silicon valley had a diversity problem, but damn at this audience.

 

[thenexus6]

Google Milky Way confirmed

 

[Ke0]

There were more black Americans in Friends than at Google IO

 

[TwoDurans]

I'm kind of amazed at just how badly these people suck at Pong.

 

[EmiPrime]

I bet they copy the Apple Watch.

 

[jelly]

I present the first GIF of I/O.

Google has full control. One at a time.

 

[Bboy AJ]

This screen is amazing. I wonder how much it costs.

 

[……forgetit]

Yep, pretty much this.

Also this shit is being live streamed, put your fucking phone down, the whole thing will be on YouTube.

 

[vid]

This transmission is coming to you.

 

[Zombie James]

I'm kind of amazed at just how badly these people suck at Pong.

Doesn't have any tutorials or objective markers.

 

[Pacbois]

lol uranus lol

 

[Orbis Tabula]

Space? Android Milky Way or Android Mars Bar?
