The information train.
The future of education. This blows my mind. The top technical school on the planet decides to offer all it's courses online, for free, no registration required... what's the angle? I don't see one. Sure you don't get the degree from
MIT to hang on your wall, or personalized instruction for that matter, but by 2006 all their information
is everybody's information. This gives me a little more hope for humanity.
