I just discovered "iTunes U", university lectures for free. I'm DLing a series of 44 lectures from UC berkley on biological studies. I listen to alot of podcast in the car commuting and the like, and for me this is just astounding. Holy crap, I just realized that there are multiple biology courses spanning about 800 tracks alltogether? What the hell? How could I have gone so long without noticing this? They have lectures on Astronomy, cognitive science, political sciences, physics, everything that I have even a remote interest in. And it's all free! And this is just from Berkeley! I've got enough material for commuting for the rest of my life! I am a happy camper.

If you want some free lectures in a vast array of topics, go check it out. I feel stupid for not having known this already. I'm probably going to get a bunch of "duh, welcome to 2008 poser." posts, or at least one from somebody thinking it will be clever to put exactly that, especially now that I've drawn attention to it. Anyway, awesome sauce all in my ipod.

I may as well get it out of the way.

Duh! Welcome to 2008 poser!

Anyhoos, that's very cool. Thanks for the find. I might check out some physics lectures myself. Do you happen to know if there are any specifically on string theory?

That is interesting. My girlfriend has itunes on my computer anyway. I may as well get some use out of it.

Open up iTunes, search for "Walter Lewin", and enjoy.

nice find this is fecking awesome!!!!
