You can already use your Google Chromecast to watch Hulu Plus, Netflix, and HBO Go, but soon Google is expected to allow even more third-party app compatibility with the streaming device.
A number of Android developers are reporting they have received invitations to attend a Cast-centric hackathon at Google HQ from December 7-8.
During the event, Google will reportedly discuss the "upcoming release of the Google Cast SDK [software development kit]," according to an email from Google posted online by several developers. Google Cast is the search giant's screen-sharing technology that powers Chromecast.
Google also has a live registration page on Google Drive for the unannounced "Google Cast Hackathon." We have asked Google for more details about the event.
