Wow! I just watched a lecture on Computer Algorithms from an MIT professor and it was HARDCORE! In the first hour of the first class he burned through bubble sort and merge sort like it was piece of cake! But it was 100 times better than the course I had at my college on the same subject! And now the top universities are making their courses freely available on the Internet! Join discussion...

New state of matter discovered? "like noodles in a soup"
6 / 1

There may be a different way of thinking about matter. New theory suggests electrons are not really elementary particles, but are formed at the ends of long "strings" of other, fundamental particles? Scientists have a model in which such strings are free to move "like noodles in a soup" and weave together into huge "string-nets". "Suddenly we realised, maybe the vacuum of our whole universe is a string-net liquid," says one. New experiments by other scientists may have proved them right. Join discussion...

MIT to show ALL classes online, including video
18 / 1
http://www.boston.com/business/personaltech/articles/2007/03...
MIT began putting courses online in 2001; more than 1,500 are already available, and all of its 1,800 courses should be posted by the end of this year. Courses that include video presentations tend to draw online crowds, and popular courses include Linear Algebra, Physics I, and Principles of Macroeconomics. Roughly 60 percent of visitors to the site come from outside of North America, and about half are what MIT calls "self-learners". Join discussion...
