Google I/O 2017 will take place in May

Yesterday, Google sent developers on a scavenger hunt that ended up with the unveiling of this year's Google I/O event. The hunt itself consisted of five puzzles, and the result is the location of the conference - the Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California, as well as the date - May 17 to May 19.

Google I/O will take place between two large tech events a lot of people are waiting for, namely MWC and IFA. The first one will take place in Barcelona, between February 27 and March 2, while the other happens in Berlin, between September 1 and September 6.

Sadly, while the new Google I/O 2017 website is already up and running, it only says "Check back soon for more details." at this stage. We will get back to it as soon as the new details surface, so stay tuned. If it helps, Google unveiled last year's I/O event in January and followed with more details in March, so this year they might do this the same way.
