Times Google Week Continues?

When I mentioned the two-stories-a-day pace of the NYT Google coverage Monday afternoon, I suggested that Tuesday’s two stories would probably be in the science section. I was close: Filed under technology, we find Katie Hafner reporting on Google’s $3 million donation to the Library of Congress to fund the digital scanning of all sorts of historically important documents worldwide, starting with 10th-century Islamic science manuscripts from Egypt, then John Markoff and Michael Barbaro on Google Base’s imminent destruction of the Yellow Pages.

So far, though, I haven’t seen anything in today’s edition—and I thought for sure there would be something about how to Google last-minute Thanksgiving recipes in Dining In/Dining Out…Well, there’s always Circuits on Thursday. Meanwhile, the Wall Street Journal gives front-page treatment to a story by Pui-Wing Tam and Kevin J. Delaney on Google’s alpha-geek hiring spree.
