Here's a pretty cool freebie -- video recordings of lectures from prodigious American universities that you can view online! (http://www.AcademicEarth.org)! Head over to AcademicEarth.org (http://www.AcademicEarth.org) and check out recorded lectures from Yale, Stanford, Princeton, MIT, Harvard, and Berkeley.

You will find a mix lectures with everything from English, to Computer Science, to History, to Entrepreneurship, to Economics, to Starcraft. Some lectures are stand-alone, and elsewhere, lectures for entire courses are available.

Wow, this is verrrrry cool! Since I always loved school so much and miss it all the time, I could so get into sitting and listening to a lecture a couple times a week! Yeah, yeah, I know, I'm a nerd..lol...buy hey, beats most of the nonsense on TV these days!

Thanks OP, saved to my favourites!

Thanks AndrewRFD! I just did a short preview of the StarCraft video and the lecturer said that StarCraft is embedded in real life. :lol:
