Breakout sessions from Google I/O - Android Open Accessories

Google I/O 2011 contained a lot of breakout sessions and fireside talks having to do with the Android OS (Including Google TV). The sessions schedule is here. I had originally intended to embed them all into one huge post, but it quickly got out of hand. It turns up that all of the videos are available at the Android Developers page in addition to the YouTube GoogleDevelopers page.

Introducing Android Open Accessories and ADK:

Ghibli world, built in Minecraft

Painfully long review of the Pandora Console

This review is quite long (47 minutes), but I wouldn't call it painful. The reviewer is very funny, and has a British accent.

My favorite quote:
"Moving on, is the sticky wicket of price, because unbelievably, you have to pay for it. I know ... it isn't just delivered to your house by a naked woman. Bizarre. Clearly, we elected the wrong government if we're in this sort of bizarre situation."
A big thank you to Stuart Ashens for the lovely video.

Now THAT is a good Kickstarter video!

Check out this kickstarter video on the MegaBar.

I almost want to pay them even though I don't have a Wii!
