footnote on employment options

[jrtom]

Somehow I'd received the impression that Google researchers don't publish a whole lot, and considered this a reason to be less enthusiastic about working there (in part because I'd like to leave my options open for an academic career later). Then I found this page: Papers written by Googlers

Now, one good question is how much of this was written before the respective authors started working at Google (among other things, I notice Russell and Norvig's AI text on the list, which I know has been around since before Norvig (?) started there). But it's somewhat encouraging, nonetheless.
