I just came across [Google Authors](https://www.google.com/talks/authors/index.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net), a series of [videos](https://youtube.com/atgoogletalks?ref=lorcandempsey.net) of guest speakers at Google. An interesting variety and different formats (lecture, interview, …). Many are interviewed by Eric Schmidt. Some household names (if you live in a BoBo household, to use the term coined by David Brooks, one of the interviewees \[[on youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXOQQr3QDZg&ref=lorcandempsey.net)\]) and some that were unfamiliar to me.  
Indeed, such is the variety that I am not sure who to link to as examples 😉

> In addition, we’ve just added our most important location yet: an online home at [google.com/talks/authors](https://www.google.com/talks/authors?ref=lorcandempsey.net) with a [video archive](https://www.youtube.com/atgoogletalks?ref=lorcandempsey.net) of our events on YouTube. Just this year, we’ve hosted a great variety of authors, including Martin Amis, Strobe Talbott, Bob & Lee Woodruff, Jonathan Lethem, Don Tapscott, Senator Hillary Clinton, and Carly Fiorina. The subjects of their talks range from literary fiction to science fiction, sociology to technology, politics to business. \[[Official Google Blog: Authors@Google](https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/04/authors-at-google.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net)\]
