Greg Linden (Google watcher, search engine dude, ex-Amazon) saw Stewart Smith's talk on Google Video about MySQL cluster, and likes the idea. That's cool. Time for more content on Google Video?
Three intrepid MySQLers came to Google after the user conference to give internal tech talks. They were kind enough to agree to us hosting them for other people to see.

The kids are the in the Kinderplex today (the Google-only child care center). It's the first time I've dropped Matthew off for care and he hasn't gone ape -- I think it's because he loved the center so much...
