Below that, it says “Welcome to Demo Slam. Where a little creativity takes tech demos from mundane to mind-blowing. All thanks to people like you. So come watch, choose your favorites and most importantly, show the world what you can do. This Wednesday the Slamming Preseason begins.”
Hovering over the people in the stands makes them hold up signs that say “Men in wigs rock!” and “Support overweight rabbits!” Again, weird.
Based off of all of this, it sounds like Google is hosting some sort of competition to see what people on the Internet can come up with using their various products and technologies. My guess would have been that this will be an HTML5 project, similar to their HTML5Rocks site or more recently their Arcade Fire experience, but the fact that this entire teaser is in Flash seems to go against that idea. We should know more soon.
