Everything Google Announced at Google I/O 2015. I watched the LiveStream of the Keynote at Google I/O 2015 yesterday at lunch. The other restaurant patrons thought I was crazy; but, I was in my happy place, with my earphones in, and pretending I was at the event. No earth shattering news; except that the new mobile OS, Android M was announced, and the improvements are mind boggling. The list is here, of all the new stuff; but, my favorites are the ability to set permissions in individual apps, the intelligent "doze" feature that will double battery life based on the motion sensors already in the phone, and the increased speed and smoothness. I have pretty much abandoned Chrome for Firefox; but, I will give the new version a try, once Android M is out. The improvements to Android Wear are also impressive, and I can see giving up my Tizen based Gear S once Wear gets WiFi and a phone chip. For now, I use my Wear devices on my left wrist and my Gear S on my right wrist. Now, I need some more arms.
