I'm pleased to announce that on the morning of March 15, 2005, I'll be facilitating a free session for association leaders on Google and innovation that will take place at the headquarters of the Special Libraries Association in Alexandria, Virginia. If you're going to be in the DC area that day, I hope you'll consider attending. You do need to register online, and when you visit that page you'll find more information on the session, as well as a link to detailed directions to SLA.
If you have any questions, send me an e-mail. I look forward to seeing you there!


Jeff, I've noticed a lot of negative press on Google recently, mostly tied to people using its products and services for less than pure motives. Some countries are even concerned that an Americanized lens will be cast over people's understanding of history because of one Google initiative. Can Google be held accountable for the results of its unbridled innovation? Should it be? Check out these links...
