    University of Washington presentation by Jeff Dean from Google.

    http://www.uwtv.org/programs/displayevent.asp?rid=2459

    Very interesting, lots of interesting detail worth watching all the way through.

    Snip from Uni of Washington:
    Google: A Behind-the-Scenes Look
    Search is one of the most important applications used on the internet and poses some of the most interesting challenges in computer science. Providing high-quality search requires understanding across a wide range of computer science disciplines. In this program, Jeff Dean of Google describes some of these challenges, discusses applications Google has developed, and highlights systems they've built, including GFS, a large-scale distributed file system, and MapReduce, a library for automatic parallelization and distribution of large-scale computation. He also shares some interesting observations derived from Google's web data.

    Enjoy.....

    Some interesting information in the lecture, most notably the information about clustering to determine correlations between words. I think this clustering technology will come into force a lot more so I believe it pays to widen the vocabulary / ontology on your web pages. It will help build a stronger theme into the web page.

    Great link Dominic :)
