Nov 1, 2007 - I agree with both you and MasamuneJJ. Merrill IS very smart, he's trying to be humorous and his attempt backfires; thus, he appears arrogant, boorish, and flippant. This is what happens when an older lecturer (usually professors, and he said he's a former academic) tries to be a peer to a young audience. He presents as a kinder person in other videos when he's not trying so hard to be 'with-it.' Better still, check out his blog, "Other Side of Sunset" to get a fuller picture of him.

Nov 13, 2007 - Very good indeed...there was another interesting video that I happened to see sometime back, which talks about a new self learning algorithm that is a concept for advance machine learning. The algorithm is called Latent Metonymical Analysis and Indexing - LMai (just type in LMai in youtube). It was interesting to watch this video as it briefly explains some important concepts of AI and search, which google is trying hard.

Nov 22, 2007 - Google looking into image mapping? :) Thats awesome. Thing is people will have to learn to make the images small in size. This might make the web even faster. (force people to make proper images)

Nov 24, 2007 - Nice and instructive seminar. I enjoyed when watching the video. Accesible information you mentioned came true for me, so i live in Istanbul and listening and watching live seminar like this in Istanbul is not possible. Thank you Google Thank you Douglas
