Of course I’m kidding about Michael Bay, but boy was Google’s demo of Project Glass blockbuster worthy. A few moments ago, Google showed off Project Glass by fitting a few skydivers with their latest Project Glass prototypes which they were broadcasting live via a Google hangout and the results were absolutely amazing.


I’m absolutely flabbergasted! I thought for sure the higher price tag of this year’s Google I/O would prevent it from selling out in under an hour. Boy was I wrong! It only took 28 minutes for Google I/O 2012 to sell out and I’m pretty sure that’s a new record. Well that’s about all I have to say about that. Hopefully you were able to snag yourself a ticket within that first 28 minutes, otherwise get ready to take a second mortgage out for a ticket via eBay.


Just a quick reminder that registration for Google I/O kicks off tomorrow. Registration will open at 7:00 a.m. PDT and will most likely sell out within the hour. Then again, this year’s prices have double from $450 to $900 so there’s a chance it may take a few more hours to sell out but be warned — it will sell out! You’ll need a G+ account to register and Google Wallet to make payment so make sure you’re prepared beforehand.


Vic Gundotra took to Google+ today to announce the registration date for this year’s Google I/O. The developer conference — which has been extended to a 3-day event — will be open for registration on March 27 at 7 a.m. PDT. Registration is first-come first-serve and this year’s ticket prices will have you running to your nearest pawn shop. Tickets have doubled in price from $450 to $900! This should trim down all the johns attending the event in hopes of scoring a free device, or simply trying to scalp their tickets on Ebay, but still… ouch!
