Android M has been revealed to the public and marshmallows are being toasted on the fire.

S'mores anyone?

Wow. That would be the last desert I'd think they'd use, but I dig it. Bring on the S'mores!

Yep, saw that, hope it's not a work in progress like Lollipop is.

Finished installing it on my nexus 5 and awaiting for all my apps to continue installing.

I'm really liking these videos by Nat & Lo. Can't remember how I stumbled upon them, but it's fun to see behind the scenes at the Big G. Obviously Google approves of these videos since they're letting them announce the new name with one.

You bringing the cookies for the s'mores, that's nice of you. I prefer the cinnamon version myself.

Pretty awesome of Google to post how they come up with names. It's a side of the industry we really don't get to see often. Awesome watch.
