I've made a page with a list of conference presentations reviewing Scopus and Google Scholar and also Web of Sceince in comparison with the former databases. Three examples follow below:
Jacso, Peter "The Endangered Database Species: Are the traditional commercial indexing/abstracting & full-text databases dead?"[PPT]
UK Serials Group 29th UKSG Annual Conference and Exhibition, University of Warwick 3-5 April 2006.
Jenkins, JR "Article Linker Integration with Google Scholar (or Google Scholar as referring source)"[PPT]
OpenURL and Metasearch: New Standards, Current Innovations, and Future Directions, September 19, 20, 21, 2005, Washington, DC.
Tarantino, Ezio "Scopus, WOK, Google Scholar: too much or not too much?" [PPT]
The International Coalition of Library Consortia Autumn 2005 7th European Meeting, Poznan, Poland 28.09 – 01.10, 2005.
If you have more suggestions, just post a comment. Please note, however, that it should be a conference presentation (i.e., not a lecture) and it should focus on some of the above-mentioned sources.

Thanks for that tip! Yeah, pre-1996 comparisons and no mention of the citation count flaw in Google Scholar. This is the article we refer to:

What you refer to is in their reference list, they have managed to be about to be publishing a second with a similar flaw….
