Google I/O Sells Out In 20 Minutes

netbuzz writes "Last year it took almost an hour, but this morning Google's enormously popular conference for developers sold out in about 20 minutes, Vic Gundotra, Google's senior vice president of engineering, told his followers on Google+. 'While we're overwhelmed with the interest and enthusiasm around Google I/O, we know it can be very disappointing and frustrating when an event sells out this quickly,' he wrote. Those who did not get tickets were not only disappointed and angry, but mystified as to why they were left out of a first-come, first-served sale despite being online and ready to buy the second the bell rang. And, of course, tickets were quickly being scalped on eBay." Of course, everyone who gets in drives away in a free Tesla.

First raspberry pi not goog IO

[vlm]

First it was raspberry pi now its goog i/o. With all the shortages (not to mention other issues), USA in 2012 is sounding more and more like Russia in 1980.
We even have a centrally controlled failing economy.
All we need is some teenage german kid to fly his cessna halfway across the country under the radar, and land in our equivalent of red square, I guess that'd be some place in D.C. And some crappy Rambo movies where we're friends with the Taliban again.
