Google Employee Nigel Tufnel Sends Invites For Mysterious Android Event November 16

nigelAs you've likely heard by now, today is Nigel Tufnel day. Tufnel, who revolutionized the music world in the early-80s with the introduction of volume knobs that go to 11 (rather than a mere 10), is being honored worldwide because of today's date: 11/11/11 (get it?). It's a nice gesture, but Tufnel's current employer, Google, apparently isn't giving him the day off: he just sent me an email invite to a special event that's being held next week in Los Angeles. Thankfully Google's at least let him inject some personality into the invite: the top of the invite fittingly says "These Go To Eleven" at the top, though it gives little indication as to what to expect. The event will be held November 16,and will be livestreamed at YouTube.com/Android ??which, presumably, means that it's going to be Android related. My hunch? I think we're going to see some of the fruits of Google's @Home project, which was announced at Google I/O this year.
