• Google I/O predictions.
• Gmail contextual gadgets – available 4 all developers.
• One of the Javarsovia 2010 talk was accepted.
• Amazon S3 has great durability, and now if you don’t need such durability you can use REDUCED_REDUDANCY storage class for lower price, that’s awesome. See Werner Vogels blog post.
• Microsoft sued Salesforce for severals patents which are so obvious and general. So maybe patent idea is stupid?
• Google I/O – lots of news
  • Google Buzz API
  • Google I/O keynote part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5 and part 6
  • Google Maps API Premier v3
  • Google Wave for Google Apps domain.
  • Google Site Search auto complete.
  • And today days brief.
  • New Google Calendar look&fill.
  • Google Storage for Developers – thats really awesome.
  • Google Latitude API.
  • Google Font Directory with API.
  • Google App Engine for Business.
• And also from Google I/O but I’m really excited about that is that Spring, VMWare and Google make very close collaboration to make Spring Portfolio and Google App engine working together really easy. Now I wonder what Oracle will do, because for VMware it is third cloud platform (Amazon EC2 (CloudFoundry), SalesForce and GAE).

Wow wow wow 🙂

P.S: Other days are in queue (will be published soon :))
