Google Moderator Released-Have Fun
Google Moderator has finally been released. Google Moderator is a tool that allows distributed communities to submit and vote on questions for tech talks, presentations and events. Google Moderator is a small application initially created for submitting and voting on the questions for Google's tech talks.
"At Google, we host a large number of "tech talks". These talks cover a wide rage of Computer Science topics like research in machine learning and methods for ranking images based on text queries. I've enjoyed attending these tech talks, but as the number of attendees has grown over time, the question-and-answer part of the talks hasn't been able to scale," explains Taliver Heath.
The application turned out to be useful for other things, like the company's meetings, and Google decided to launch it publicly on the App Engine platform.
In his blog, head of Google's Webspam team Matt Cutts says "I like that Google is in many ways turning itself inside out by taking many of our internal tools and making them available to the world. We use tools such as Gmail and Google Docs all the time in-house to share information, presentations, and docs. Guido van Rossum recently announced that a version of Mondrian, our internal code review tool, is available for the outside world to use. Now Google Moderator is another tool that anyone can use. Projects such as Google Code and Google App Engine make it even easier to share code or applications with the world. And releasing low-level tools such as protocol buffers or high-level tools such as Google Web Toolkit makes life easier for lots of developers."
