Google Developer Day and DevFest 2011

Google I/O is the search giant’s biggest event held each year to announce their latest developments on HTML5, Android, Chrome, Cloud and other projects. Google realised, of course, that not everyone is able to fly down to San Francisco to catch the event, so they organised several smaller events called Google Developer Day across the world and on the same breathe that was how Google DevFest came to be. Google I/O is usually held in the middle of the year while the Google Developer Day and DevFest events are held later in the year.

DevFest will come to Singapore in November. Registration, sessions and event details are not out yet, but I will update this post again when more information becomes available. Our Malaysian counterparts will have theirs this Thursday. Registration is open. They’ll be covering topics on the latest developments in Android, HTML5, Google Analytics and something new called Google Fusion Tables. Learn more from the event’s session abstracts.

As always, keep up-to-date on Twitter with the hashtags #gdd11 and #devfest. Oh, and one more thing, if you haven’t already seen the Google Developer Day website, I highly recommend that you do. It’s a superb example of what HTML5 can do.
