Talks at Google will feature guest speakers to share industry knowledge within their field. Recently, they had the cast from HBO's Silicon Valley up for a lively discussion on the show. Thomas Middleditch, Kumail Nanjiani, Amanda Crew, Zach Woods, and Martin Starr brought their true colors out for their stop by Talks at Google. Kumail Nanjiani opens the discussion with a dig at Google for not having chairs in a viewing area. That is kind of low rent of Google to not provide chairs to their employees. Public libraries have chairs. I find Nanjiani's joke at the start to

Public demand has reached an all-time high for streaming music services. Recently, reports have surfaced showing how much each streaming service is paying artists. First, I want to note that it costs a lot of money to build, maintain and store servers that data is kept on for each company. When you download videos in comparison to songs, you will see a major difference in file size.

Four of the largest tech companies, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, and Amazon continue to expand their cloud computing services and products. The competition is so intense, Google has a calculator on their cloud service website to compare prices with Amazon Web Services. It is smart business, as well as giving AWS an indirect plug. I suggest a company develop a website, like Orbitz for cloud computing, that displays the different companies, services, products, and prices in an organizable fashion. The website RightScale, is currently doing something similar to this idea. RightScale has a breakdown of their top four companies including: AWS,
