Google I / O is an annual web developer conference held by Google to discuss the development of open web technologies and its services.
Today, tickets for Google I / O 2011
went on sale . But now you can not buy them!
As Google Vice President Vic Handotra
wrote on Twitter, all tickets sold out in just 59 minutes. For comparison: in 2009 tickets were sold for 90 days, and in 2010 - for 50 days.

TechCrunch
writes that this is quite a terrific indicator that developers have become more interested in working with Google platforms (namely, Android and Chrome). The developers may also be counting on Google’s habit of handing out new Android phones at such events (everyone got an Evo 4G last year), which makes the $ 450 ticket price more reasonable.
This year, I / O will discuss cloud technologies, as well as Google’s products and technologies like Android, Google Chrome, App Engine, Google Web Toolkit, and Google API. The conference will be held May
10–11 in San Francisco.
