Last night was Saturday night, and even for us techie nerd-geeks (new classification), it also serves as party night. The collective minds behind the advent of Android are no exception to this long-standing nightly routine: they tore down the house and our little mascot was the guest of honor.
A party is a party, though, and sometimes you don’t need a real reason to have one. It does make me wonder, however (warning: speculation ahead): what could’ve happened to trigger it? It’s entirely plausible that the team just wanted to have a good time for the general success of their platform, but the eager beaver in me questions: is Froyo just about finished?
We’re expecting to see Froyo at this year’s Google I/O conference on May 19th, so it’s possible that they could be celebrating the final beta stage leading up to its early summer arrival date. Or they could just be wanting a good time, who knows? Check out other photos of the party from Android Engineer (and hopeful photographer) Romain Guy here.

I rest my case.
Copied from a google employee’s twitter:
“OMG people. It was our annual barbecue, we do this every year.”
It’s really too bad the drink part doesn’t come out someplace else.
its probably the update after froyo hahaha gray goose!!!
@Dianne how would you know that haha, what are you privy to? would you mind sharing?
This was not related to Froyo.
Rofl Aubry,
This is what’s known as a “Blog”. Welcome.
I hope they are partying because that finally convinced HTC to give mytouch 3g the 2.1 update asap.
You’ve got to assume it’s Froyo – seems to be a lot of ice going on, would tie in with the frozen in froyo
@pieter
I 100% agree with you!!
@aubry
this is a blog. people come here for the speculation of the tech-bloggers. you are allowed to agree or disagree with their opinion, and then share that in the comments section.
.
i think you might be looking for a forum. there somebody, can share a story, leave it open ended, and then hope that the readers will speculate further. there is a big button at the top that says “forum” in white. click on that and fuck off.
wow aubry chill out, he declared it speculation and there is nothing wrong with that
Its funny how its fits the Hero’s lockscreen exactly rofl
My speculation is that since Steve Jobs made his comment about Flash and Adobe has decided to give FREE ANDROID PHONES to all the employees of Adobe that Google was celebrating this VICTORY OVER APPLE iPHONE!! It is definatly a victory for the Android smartphone OS and Google.
Why not just point out that they were partying, had a really neat centerpiece, and leave the speculation to the readers and their comments. A good writer engages his readers. A bad reporter has a need to sound knowledgeable, even if he’s not.
