Things took a turn for the better when Pardo, the guy who taught me how to build wheels (and easily one of the best mechanics I've ever met), joined Google last year, just before the 2007 Tour of the Alps. When Google organized the G2G (Googlers teaching Googlers) series of classes in November, we proposed this class for the series and was accepted.
Google has been kind enough to post the videos from the lecture section of this class on YouTube for all to enjoy and learn. The comment thread on this blog post can be used for questions, but the usual disclaimers apply.

Thank you for the excellent post and information, I will probably give wheel building a shot.

Two questions. What editing software and compression settings did you use for this video? How did you manage to excede the 10 minute YouTube maximun?
Both were done by my employer, so I have no idea how it was accomplished.
