      Thanks, Andrew, I have it now...thanks, Gaieus. Odd, considering that I have a fairly extensive Google Docs setup and that Google manages my domain's email that the message should get de-spammed.

        My suggestion is, to keep Google emails from going into spam, create a filter where all emails from google.com go to a label and get starred or something.

          That's a good idea...I just did it, and applied it to previous messages. What is interesting is that none of the forty-or-so other emails in my inbox originating from a google.com address had been intercepted as spam. I think it must have been semantics in the message contents that flagged it.

            You know, the more I look at the program, the more I think to myself:

            *OK, Lewis, you know how to do all or most of these things very well already, so

            A) First thing, grab your goody bag and scarf up on edibles.

            B) Sneak into the Google Restricted Zone and look for cyborgs and/or The Wormhole.

            C) Be back in time for the party.*

            I'll bring my headlamp and Wormhole Detection Goggles.

              With my luck, I'll end up being made into a cyborg and then they'll shoot me through a wormhole. It'll be just like an outake from The Black Hole.61305.jpg

                Noticed, with the last set of directions from Google, that everyone who attends will have to sign a "Standard Google" Non-Disclosure Agreement.
                EDIT: I removed the quote from the NDA, because I realized it is also labled Confidential/Proprietory.

                Some of us may have seen something like this before, if we do beta-testing for any software developer.

                I wonder if this will prevent us from discussing anything related to SU7, assuming they demonstrate it. Those of us who went to the last Basecamp might remember some very interesting demos of future features, including the items that ultimately became Layout and Photomatch. If such things are "revealed" this time around, will we be able to talk about them?

                It definitely means that if I find any cyborgs or wormholes you'll never hear about it from me here, but that probably goes without saying.

                  Well, Lewis, this is an interesting point. Of course beta testers need to sign this NDA with Google as well and there's generally no discussions about beta issues outside the Beta Forums. But these 200+ people who are not Google employess nor beta testers (with an already existing and "valid" NDA) I don't know how Google will be able to "enforce" this.

                  Certainly they will only talk about things they think are not too "sensitive" and can be leaked out. Like they did in 2005 (and even some features mentioned there are not yet implemented in public releases).

                  So I'm really curious what's up for the summer! 😉

                    This seems pretty benign and mechanical to me:

                    IF you enter the Googleplex, THEN you sign an NDA. Period.

                      Thats OK.
                      All one of the people there has to do is open a new Hotmail a/c and mail the goss to have a dozen non-attendees...should do the trick 😄

                            That's a good photo (by Eric/"Grahama", I take it). I have a few I'll post, along with some other items, once I finish traveling for a bit.

                            Brad, as this photo was taken, was talking about his original "vision" for SketchUp: he said he conceived of it as a basic "3D engine" that others could extend as they need. I would say that has worked out!

                              That's interesting. The idea of SketchUp as an application platform was one of the main points of this video. It's good to see there may be a larger vision of SketchUp rather than being a tool for populating Google Earth.

                                Gaieus, I was looking in Google about your presentation of Archeology in 3D Basecamp... and I suddenly discovered this:

                                http://www.pecsiujsag.hu/index.php?p=article&aid=7217

                                😄 😄 😄

                                (I am always ashamed when my name appears in a newspaper, usually it happens when I win a prize of something 💚 ).

                                I hope you don't mind for putting the link here 😉

                                What does it says...? 😄

                                Forgive my spanglish...

                                  Hi Todd, I am suprised that you have any time to be looking at these forums, I counted at least 10 rubies that you promised to have done by the end of this week & I wasnt in all the same lectures that you where..
                                  It was a pleaseure meeting you all, I am in Hawaii for a week or 2 I too have some interesting photos that i will share on a blog. I will post it when I get back. Does anyone have the link to the google phots that where taken at basecamp?

                                  I don't know why I did it,
                                  I don't know why I enjoyed it,
                                  and I don,t know why I will do it again.

                                          I do not find the place in the board index to learn what happened concerning SU at Base camp, apart from some photos and general comments ?

                                            They have posted information on the SketchUp blog. Here's the link. THer is still more to come though, including you-tube videos of most of the presentations.
