Google comes to Canberra

Pamela Fox, Maps API Support Engineer at Google, will talk on "Living in the Cloud: Hosting Data & Apps Using the Google Infrastructure" at the ANU in Canberra, 14 May 2009. Google staff talk at ANU regularly on techncial issues and several students have gone on to work for Google. Pamela was respo0nsible for a Google Maps mashup used for Mapping the Victorian fires. I suggested the 2009 Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission talk to the Google Mapping people and that seems to have happened as media respots suggest that the Commission will make use of Google maps.
