No time for another degree? Free online Berkeley and Stanford classes

Every now and then, I'll find something online that I've seen before, but forgotten all about. That happened this week when I rediscovered the massive webcast directory offered free from the good folks at University of California Berkeley. This directory offers all of us the opportunity to take a class from one of the top-rated schools in the country from the comfort of where ever your internet connection finds you, without paying a dime.

There is a similar offering from Stanford (though only audio from Stanford, no video that I can find) available for free download from iTunes.

While there don't seem to be many related to finances or business, I'm spending an hour right now watching an "Intro to Astronomy" lecture (one of my all-time favorite college courses).

Hundreds of webcasts and podcasts from Berkeley available here.
