I caught the last segment of Google I/O, and it ended around 00:15. So when you posted this thread I guess it was already over?
Things I caught:
1. Improved Carboard that can house 6" phones
2. JUMP: Which allows creators to make a 360 degree video and Youtube to view them, and
3. Expeditions: Where Google tries to bring cardboard to school students by giving them cardboard and then taking them to any place in the world.
Also got to know about a few changes in App management, app discovery and monitization.

oh, saw it.
see the schedule: *events.google.com/io2015/schedule
nope it wasn't, at 00:15, only keynote was over, next session started at 01:30am, where they discussed what's new in android in detail, it was on channel 1, you can watch the whole schedule here: *events.google.com/io2015/schedule
Things i liked in new M:
1. App permissions and how user now have full control over them now.
2. Dark theme options
3. Quick settings customization (Finally), and seems like they will add more with time under SystemUI Tuner.
4. Vertical scrolling in widget drawer rather than horizontal scrolling, now seems much more easier to search widgets
5. Doze
6. The improved Google Now and Photos, especially the Now Tap.
7. Improved camera, reviews are coming that hdr+ is twice as fast now.
8. New volume dropdown option.
Things i disliked:
1. List view in app drawer
Rest i'd need to test when a flashable zip is ready for my nexus 5, don't want to backup and restore all my 25GB of data back and forth, hoping for a multirom flashable zip soon.
Funny thing is that the Photos app already got updated with features like unlimited storage, swipe to select and more features on my lollipop, pretty cool. here's a preview video for Android M:

all I/O attendees got nexus 9
So the entry cost was Rs. 57397.50 and they got phone with a roughly same price!
That means entry was free but its compulsory to pay for the Nexus 9

Academic Admission Ticket: $300 = ~ 19135.50 INR
General Admission Ticket: $900 = ~ 57397.50 INR
Does google really need that much money ?
$900 is not much for those working in the US.
^^True that. I was about to say that. We Indians always convert it to INR for obvious reasons.
But the amount in that country is not that much and justified and affordable too. The difference we feel is because of our economy.
In this case just consider it as Rs 900/-. Even consider it like Nexus 9 for Rs. 900/-
But as soon as you do the conversion, it fails. That's due to out economy.
You see, the IT people who are going onsite, can save upto 1.5 Lakh per month if he's staying single or 1 lakh if he and his wife is staying with normal lifestyle. That's because he then incomes in $ and spends in $ too.
^^ Way to go offtopic here. xD
Anyway, digit published the article on Google I/O Day 1 highlights. Google I/O 2015 Day 1: All you need to know | Digit.in
Some of which was related to Android M:
The thing which I totally didn't like: "Tapping on a link in Chrome will now automatically open the requisite app instead of asking you to choose the app you want to open the link in."
That's the only sad thing. Sometimes I don't want the link to open in an app. I hope it have a toggle for this feature.
