Google IO aftermath and Firebase...

It's been a minute. Let's regroup and talk about Google IO last month. Plenty of time to digest what was talked about, what was seen, scary AI...

Firebase? Are you using firebase yet? If you are using Google Analytics still, you need to switch by Oct of 2019 (my friend called this yrs ago). I recently switched my current apps over to Firebase and implemented deep links, analytics, crashlytics (formerly owned by Twitter), and ads. So I got you if you need any help.

Anyone with a Pixel 3 or 3a? I want to hold one, use one, please bring it if you got it! I'm not sure I buy the hype so far.

Are you concerned with the over 512 MB of built in AI in the new Android? Let's discuss. Yes .5 gig. Half a gig in memory is a concern of mine since most flagships are between 4-8 gigs of RAM, so it's a huge chunk.

Do you have another Google topic you'd like to discuss? Great!

I'm looking for a co-organizer to help with running GDG Albuquerque. Programmers wanted, though not required. Please let me know if you are interested by attending, and also send me a note on here.

Hope to see you all there. As always, everyone is welcome and please bring a friend.

Bring a laptop if you need any help with code.

See you soon.
