At the Google I/O Extended events, you can network with other talented developers, learn and share ways to create great web apps, meet Google engineers, experience live demonstrations of products built in our local offices, and walk away with some cool swag. We look forward to seeing you there!”

  1. I honestly didn’t now that Google even had offices or operated in Canada. That is pretty cool.

  2. If it at the Charles street offices, that would be Kitchener, not Waterloo, though I guess it is still Waterloo Region.

    • Saying it’s in Waterloo makes it sound more upscale and techie. Saying it’s in downtown Kitchener in an area known for a string of arsons and run down industrial buildings doesn’t sound so glam.

  5. Hey, Stimulator: Give my regards to poor, upscale and techie Waterloo.
    Google’s offices are in Kitchener, regardless what anybody calls it . . .

    • I actually work in Kitchener not far from downtown. I’m not saying it’s a bad place, and it has improved a lot over the past few years such as the building that the Google office is in, but there does seem to be a contrast between the two downtown cores and how they are represented.
