Why Google talks are always boring

We’re (The fleckers) in Berlin at Web2.0 Conference, produced by O’Reilly. Yesterday we arrived at the venue (which is around 20 km outside of Berlin) after an all night long Road trip in Boris’ car (really fun).
I’ve been to several sessions and one of them was about OpenSocial, given by Google.
I’ve seen multiple talks of GOOG representatives and they all had one thing in common: They were all boring. I think the reason for that is that they always talk about things everybody already knows and do not elaborate about the future of Google, their strategy and thoughts. They do not inspire the audience.
Yesterday it was the same all over again. Google talking about OpenSocial sounds really interesting and inspiring, but I didn’t hear one thing I didn’t know, not one thing that made me think, not one thing that grabbed me and gave me an excuse (if you need one) to discuss things after the session with other participants.
Disclosure: I fell asleep during the session, so I might have missed the interesting parts :)
