With Apple, you're banned from watching live streams of its annual developer event unless you're on a Mac, an iOS device, or using Safari. Google, well, Google doesn't care what you use. Heck, you can be on an Windows Vista machine and still watch its I/O 2014 keynote.

This year, Google's annual developer conference will be held on June 25-26 at San Francisco's Moscone Center. The keynote begins Wednesday, June 25 at 9 a.m. Pacific Time. That’s 12 p.m. on the east coast. Here's the link.

We might not get skydivers, but this year's I/O promises some big announcements: we'll get an in-depth look at Google's wearable's strategy with Android Wear, a peek at Android in your connected home, and maybe even a new version of Google Glass. Here's how you can join in this year.

FROM YOUR BED OR THE EVEREST BASE CAMP

Click here for the live stream. You're welcome.

FROM AN APP

If you're on an Android device, grab the official Google I/O app and watch the keynote there. It isn't available on iOS, unfortunately, but hey, the stream still works in Safari, so you're not exactly locked out.

ON TWITTER

Our very own senior reporter, Mat Honan, will be tweeting from the keynote. Follow him: @mat. Also, follow @GadgetLab for the big headlines.

ON WIRED

We’ll have a continuously updating post of all the news---check back early tomorrow morning for the link, or just go to the front door of WIRED.

OR ATTEND AN I/O EXTENDED EVENT

Who wants to be the nerd in the basement watching the live stream by themselves? Haul your behind out to an event close to you (scroll down on that page) and catch the live stream with a bunch of Google enthusiasts. Bring KitKats or something.
