I especially enjoyed Stephen Adams' talk. The other two were very interesting, but much broader overviews of Google technologies. Adams really drilled down into the nitty gritty tricks he used to decrease the size of Chrome updates.
In contrast, a large portion of Chee Chew's talk was basically a Google engineer walking through how to attach documents and use video chat in Gmail.
I really hope they do more of these talks. As a UW student, it's thrilling to be able to hop on a bus and go rub shoulders with Googlers.

How easy is it for a non-student to "unofficially" drop into a CS class in UW? Will the professors find out and call the security/cops?
