Authors@Google: Chris Guillebeau "The $100 Startup"
In The $100 Startup, Chris Guillebeau shows you how to lead of life of adventure, meaning and purpose -- and earn a good living. Still in his early thirties, he's already visited more than 175 nations -- and yet he's never held a "real job" or earned a regular paycheck. Rather, he has a special genius for turning ideas into income, and he uses what he earns both to support his life of adventure and to give back. Chris talks about how you can start small with your venture, committing little time or money, and wait to take the real plunge when you're sure it's successful. And the best part is, if we change our own life, we can help others change theirs. This remarkable talk will start you on your way. It's all about finding the intersection between your "expertise" -- even if you don't consider it such -- and what other people will pay for. You don't need an MBA, a business plan or even employees. All you need is a product or service that springs from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid.

Green@Google: Dr. Iain Douglas-Hamilton, Founder of "Save the Elephants"
"One man's mission to fight elephant poaching ================================= Africa is experiencing a severe poaching crisis of the order we have not seen since the 1970s. One man is leading the fight to save the elephants through technology, collaboration, and community engagement. This man is Dr. Iain Douglas-Hamilton. His groundbreaking study of elephant behavior in Tanzania in the 1960's paved the way for elephant research and conservation today. Intrigued by their intelligence, Iain became passionate about elephant protection and founded "Save the Elephants" in 1993. Today, Iain is a leader in using technology for conservation. He has outfitted GPS collars on eighty wild elephants, enabling researchers to watch live elephant movements through Google Earth, an experience similar to flying across the Kenyan bush from 500 feet in the air. He has been named a Google Earth hero for his innovative use of Google Earth in conservation. Through Android phones, Iain collects GPS location data and photos about elephant deaths. He then shares the data as indisputable evidence with advocacy bodies tracking elephant poaching trends. He also does his part to save the environment while saving the elephants. His project is powered entirely by solar panels. Googlers interested in watching elephants in Kenya are welcome to stay at the Elephant Watch Camp, run by Dr. Iain Douglas-Hamilton's wife Oria.

Green@Google: Bill Wallauer, Photography for Disneynature movie "Chimpanzee"
"Bill Wallauer, the Jane Goodall Institute's wildlife cameraman and research videographer, will share stories and answer questions about his behind-the-scenes experience working in the field filming Disneynature's newest True-Life Adventure, Chimpanzee. Capturing footage was no easy task. It involved living in the remote Africa forest on and off for three years, dangling on 3'x3' platform 100 feet up in the trees, and avoiding everything from African bees to deadly rhino vipers. Chimpanzee opens in theaters nationwide on April 20. For every moviegoer who sees Chimpanzee during opening week, Disneynature will make a donation to the Jane Goodall Institute to protect chimpanzees today and tomorrow. Bill offers a unique and fascinating view of life among wild chimpanzees. For 15 years, Bill spent just about every day following the wild chimpanzees of Gombe National Park in Tanzania, capturing the intimate details of their daily life. Most recently, he worked as principal photography for Chimpanzee. Today, Bill is a sought-after speaker for adults and youth. His infectious personality, great stories and chimpanzee multimedia presentation help audiences understand the chimpanzees' behavior and emotional capacity, and the similarities and differences between humans and chimps. Bill's passion for the chimps he knows so intimately truly makes him the Jane Goodall Institute's "Chimp Champion."

Leonard Mlodinow, "Subliminal: How Your Unconscious Mind Rules Your Behavior", Authors at Google
Every aspect of our mental lives plays out in two versions: one conscious, which we are constantly aware of, and the other unconscious, which remains hidden from us. Over the past two decades researchers have developed remarkable new tools for probing the unconscious, or subliminal, workings of the mind. This explosion of research has led to a sea change in our understanding of how the mind affects the way we live. As a result, scientists are becoming increasingly convinced that how we experience the world--our perception, behavior, memory, and social judgment--is largely driven by the mind's subliminal processes and not by the conscious ones, as we have long believed.

Patrick Awuah:: "Fostering Innovation as the Key to Lasting Change in Africa", Talks at Google
After a successful career at Microsoft, Patrick looked back to his native Ghana and decided that the ills of the country could only by solved by educating the next generation of business and government leaders, providing them with training in critical thinking and ethics that the current generation lacked. To put his plan into action, he founded Ashesi University in Accra, West Africa's first liberal arts school. Now in its 10th year, Ashesi empowers young Africans to develop the motivation and the skills they need to create their own solutions to Africa's challenges. Ashesi students are known worldwide for applying their computer science and business skills in innovative ways to address local challenges. Nearly all Ashesi graduates have chosen to stay in Africa (over 95%), where they are known for ethical integrity and for their innovative and entrepreneurial talents.

"Manhunt: The Ten-Year Search for Bin Laden--from 9/11 to Abbottabad" Here are riveting new details of bin Laden's flight after the crushing defeat of the Taliban to Tora Bora, where American forces came startlingly close to capturing him; his grim, Spartan life in hiding; and his struggle to maintain control of al-Qaeda even as American drones systematically picked off his key lieutenants. Half a world away, CIA analysts haunted by the intelligence failures that led to 9/11 and the WMD fiasco pored over the tiniest of clues before homing in on the man they called "the Kuwaiti"--who led them to a peculiar building with twelve-foot-high walls and security cameras less than a mile from a Pakistani military academy. This was the courier who would unwittingly steer them to bin Laden, now a prisoner of his own making but still plotting to devastate the United States. Bergen takes us inside the Situation Room, where President Obama considers the COAs (courses of action) presented by his war council and receives conflicting advice from his top advisors before deciding to risk the raid that would change history--and then inside the Joint Special Operations Command, whose "secret warriors," the SEALs, would execute Operation Neptune Spear. From the moment two Black Hawks take off from Afghanistan until bin Laden utters his last words, Manhunt reads like a thriller. Based on exhaustive research and unprecedented access to White House officials, CIA analysts, Pakistani intelligence ... From: AtGoogleTalks Views: 1291 24 ratings Time: 58:15 More in Howto & Style
