Last year they put all the videos and slides up for free: http://sites.google.com/site/io/ http://sites.google.com/site/io/ (Thanks Google! ). I'd imagine they'll do the same this year. They seem like good sessions. Both this year and last year, I've kind of pined for more Google Apps-related stuff, but I admit that's due to an "enterprise IT" focus I have for my job, and Google in general is totally reasonably, more of a web company. This year the Chrome sessions seem really interesting. As with all events, you can get most of the content without going, via blogs, tweets, media coverage, and videos. It's the "hallway sessions," networking, and general inspiration and manic vibe that's unique. I guess if you're going for API references, it's probably not worth it. If you want to corner a product manager, then it probably is worth it :D
