    Good overview of general features and design considerations for developing for Google TV.

    I had to rush out of work early and not eat dinner before attending this event to just get there by 6:45PM (that's when the talks usually start). But when I arrived, there was no space to even stand and no food left. I just turned around and walked right back out. Complete waste of my time, I should have just stayed at work or just went home and get some dinner instead of stopping by.

    Generally good, but... 1) I would have suggested more info on how to get involved as a developer since Google is obviously trying to push this young platform. 2) Let's go back to the pizza instead of finger sandwiches

    good presentation but I wish it would have started on time since I had a hard stop at 8pm.

    Started a bit later than I expected, but otherwise was well organized and content was interesting.

    A lot of info. , sometime it was difficult to hear the speaker, however, I was at back of the room.

    Was a little disappointed that it started so late. Was looking for a few more technical details/insights. The presentation seemed a little high altitude.

    Started late with no explanation. Information was presented well albeit general.

    Non-technical, but very refreshing and relevant. I enjoyed both talks and the audience seemed very engaged. Both Edith and Don are fantastic presenters! Thank you!

    First presentation was excellent. I especially loved the video of the Spanish translation app. Second presentation was also very good - a tough task to try to "reverse engineer" Google's ranking system.

    Chet and Romain keep on delivering! Not only did we get an amazing intro to ICS (which rocks on all the accounts!) but we also got a bonus presentation (on UI) as well! Thanks guys!

    Again, well worth the drive (ugh - 280 at 5 PM) up from Los Altos. Good technical(!) overview of the new stuff. Good long length of time, too -- two hours two-part talk. As for logistics: maybe institutionalize a full 15 minute or so mid-course break for networking.

    The presentation was great and the speakers were willing to answer questions and speak with people which made this a unique opportunity. A+

    Good speakers, good info, lacking seating and seriously needed some P/A (amplification) because I could not hear the speaker and I was only at the middle of the room

    great information on ICS capabilities.

    Excellent overview of Android ICS 4.0 User Interface features and live demo.

    The presentation felt disjointed thus not showcasing ICS capabilities as I would have liked. Chet's section on ui design guidelines was a bright spot. I enjoyed that. I also liked the little android bot they handed out.

    Right on the money. I've been waiting for a deep dive into custom Android UIs for some time... and Eric delivered. Thanks!

    The actual content was good, and it's fun to see the attention to detail Square is doing. I had no issues with the presentation itself. However, I found it pretty disappointing that the presentation didn't start until about an hour after the scheduled time. I feel like that was an hour of time wasted/lost. Sure, I talked to some folks and all, but I'd rather see the presentation start close to the start time, then allow socialization/networking after (which I think is often better anyway, as folks will have some common context to discuss if they hadn't before).
