Google Appearance

September 10th, 2008 | Category: Appearances

We have (via the Neal Stephenson Community’s LiveJournal Site) an unsubstantiated claim that Neal is speaking at Google (roughly one year to the day +1 of his last visit to Kirkland).  We’ll update you if we find out anymore about this.

Update:  It seems that we have confirmation that Neal is indeed going to speak at Google Headquarters in Mountain View on Friday.  Hopefully more to come…

Update 2:  In the comments is a link to a video of the talk!

Kevin Kelly on the 10,000 year Clock and Neal

August 25th, 2008 | Category: Anathem, Appearances, Books

KK.org, has an interesting article about the 10,000 year Clock and how it relates to Anathem.  Plus there are some details on tickets to the Long Now’s event and book signing $45 seems like a bargin, but I am a bit outside of the average commute (approx. 1800 miles give or take) not that I am totally counting out!
