I came across an interesting item yesterday on John Batelle's Searchblog site about the Google Factory Tour. It looks like Google had a press day on the 19th May and invited the good people from the media along to listen to Google engineers and product managers discuss their technology - looking at what they are currently doing and will be doing in the future. Here's what was on the programme:
Progress in Research and Ads
Marissa Mayer - (Director, Consumer Web Products)
Peter Norvig - (Director, Engineering Search Quality)
Opportunities Today
Jonathan Rosenberg - (Product Management)
Jeff Huber - (VP Engineering)
Dave Girouard - (General Manager, Enterprise)
Future Directions
Alan Eustace - (VP Engineering & Research)
Marissa Mayer - (Director, Consumer Web Products)
Sergey Brin - (Co-Founder & President, Technology)
Product Demos
The Google Factory webcasts are available on the Google website and make for interesting viewing.
