Academic Earth has videos of "thousands" of lectures from professors at Ivy League and other top universities. You can subscribe to courses through RSS or add the podcasts to your iTunes library.

It's still in beta (what isn't, right?), but pretty interesting even with the limited content available at this point.

I, myself, like to find prior posts with tonnes of favourites and see if I can sneak it past.

Weird. Nothing came up on the URL check. Should've searched harder. Flagged.

Nonsense, gman. You find much more creative ways to up your deleted-post count.

Interesting - search missed it because of the left-off www.

Well if the original post would have used more tags, maybe it would have been found easier.

If I could somehow put this website into the Wayback Machine maybe, just maybe I might find a Carl Sagan lecture in there.

"Thousands" was apparently meant ironically?

I'm glad Mr. Kotter now teaches at Yale.

How many videos are available on Academic Earth?

As of this writing, there are over fifteen hundred videos from MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, Harvard, Princeton, and Yale. We are adding more every day. Some of these are grouped into courses, which each contain anywhere from 4 to 50 lectures.


So only in the Morissettudinous sense of not being ironic.

...and plays professional poker.
