authors@google and author google conversations on youtube

Friday, April 27th, 2007

Came across this interesting tidbit. Authors speaking at google, and author conversations on youtube. Some authors and publishers may find it interesting. See authors@google (or Google’s blog. )

Readers who love their authors and books may enjoy watching these author talks on youtube. Authors include people like Chris Anderson (Long Tail) , Ken Roth (Human Rights Watch), Steve Wozniak (Apple co-founder), Steve Stiglitz (nobel prize winner), George Soros (Open Societies Institute), Lawrence Lessig (creative commons). There are some really interesting names if one goes through the youtube videos. If one likes booktv, one may like this even more (the subject matter is more diverse it seems). Appears to be a very interesting resource for book lovers. Videos here. (Thanks to the Google folks for sharing this with the rest of the world.)
