Manager, Google Australia and New Zealand

Google Australia has officially come out of beta–we've
recently launched our new Australian operation. While Google has
had a presence Down Under since late 2002, we have only recently
moved into our new digs, which have water views that are the envy
of Googlers worldwide.

This new Googleplex in Sydney gives us the opportunity to scale our
operation to support a growing band of users, advertisers, and
partners. We have also invested heavily in local engineering talent
to conduct original R&D work, underscoring Google's
commitment to Australia and willingness to set up shop wherever
there's talent.

To coincide with the grand opening of the office, the team recently
released street maps for href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=australia&ll=-25.641526,134.033203&spn=25.50741,46.845703" >
Australia and href="http://maps.google.com/maps?q=new zealand&ll=-40.900557,174.885971&spn=20.06978,52.294922" >
New Zealand so web developers can get a jump start on href="http://www.google.com/apis/maps" >integrating Down Under maps
into their sites.
