We're live at the Google "Factory Tour" in Mountain View today. Marissa Mayer, VP of search products and user experience, will be speaking, as well as Carter Maslan, from Google Maps, R.J. Pittman, GM of search properties, and Johanna Wright, Google Search product manager.

The talks commence at 9:30 a.m. PDT. For the as-it-happens report, see my live blog below and the official video stream here. I recommend you open the video link in a new window, so you can see the stream and live blog together. Check back here after the event closes for analysis and wrap-up.
