Google's having its first "Factory Tour" today, an event for journalists and industry analysts. Google cofounder Sergey Brin will be speaking, along with CEO Eric Schmidt. Various other executives will also be talking about products and services from Google.
Chris and Gary are at a conference on the East Coast and can't make it. I was just out at Google about a week ago, so couldn't squeeze in another transatlantic jump.
If you're like us missing the fun, never fear. There will be a webcast today beginning at 10am Pacific Time and lasting until 1pm (the event itself, however, runs through 3:30pm). Here's the agenda:
