Google I/O Day 2 [Android Day?!]

[SprintFun]

Since yesterday was mostly the web side of google, today I expect the keynote to be about Android (FroYo), and maybe touching on Chrome OS.

Watch it LIVE on YouTube


Will be posting some live blog links when I see them come up for those of us (like me) stuck at work.
