Findability in DC Webcast

The Library of Congress has posted its webcast of Peter Morville’s July 20th talk on Ambient Findability. I found the talk to be most informative since we often do not consider “search” when people look for information on web sites. Peter Morville is considered the father of Information Architecture. You can view the 45 minute webcast here.
