Google Cloud Platform samples, now on GitHub

We recognize that GitHub is a well respected platform and embrace the concept of social coding as it relates to our code samples.

I can understand expecting Google to use their own code hosting, but honestly I'm not that surprised that they're using GitHub.

Google Code was a step up from SourceForge, but GitHub revolutionized the way that developers collaborate. It is therefore the place to post code if you want to involve community engagement.
