Some have speculated we could see some Gingerbread related news, but it should be an interesting talk no matter what happens. It has been rumored that seven major announcements are coming from the companies participating in the web 2.0 summit, so anything is possible. Tune in and let us know what you think.

Tim’s blog, the O’Reilly Radar “watches the alpha geeks” to determine emerging technology trends, and serves as a platform for advocacy about issues of importance to the technical community.

I particularly enjoyed the parts of the keynote where he describes how the web is growing and learning like a child.  I have used the same comparison when referring to our site and I think it perfectly describes the Android platform.  Google may have severely crippled the Market left out some things, but the community has stepped up to fill the holes.

Speaking of changes, we have a lot in store for our regular readers.  We are always open to new ideas though.  Our goal is to provide value to our readers, so let us know how we can help.

O’Reilly Media, Inc. has also just released their first Android book “Android Application Development: Rough Cuts Version“.  You can pre-order a copy now for only $24.99.
