Seems awesome. I've taken a lot of classes like these but they were by Stanford, I'll have to check these out. Seems cool.

Awesome! One of my college professors showed me two similar resources. The first was edX.org. The classes and assignments are graded by actual professors at their respective universities (MIT, Berkely, Harvard), and have content that comes directly from their lectures. The second was MIT OpenCourseware. The amount of content on this site is simply astonishing, with free lecture notes, study groups, assignments, everything you need. MIT Open Courseware doesn't just have content on Computer science, they have everything from Biology to Engineering and Chemistry to Anthropolgy! Also, if you have a Roku, you can add it as a channel - I watch the lectures on my TV all the time!

Really useful stuff. Like Zache was saying MIT OpenCourseware is definitely something to check out.
I've watched more than a couple of lectures from the OpenCourseware archives.I don't get tired.
