This really is the future-- having great universities on tap like this!
I remember when I was in my teens having a great deal of interest in things and not being able to get access to materials-- the tiny university in my town had a library that was a goldmine for me, but in retrospect was very small. I remember often having to wait weeks or months to get specialized knowledge that I knew was out there but that wasn't readily available.
This course is great news. I'm a longtime iOS developer, but have to have my head in the server side of things so much that I appreciate these courses as a refresher.
Also coming to appreciate the iTunes U App. I just downloaded Stanford's Machine Learning course in the format last night. (This is the same course that was given for free last year, same instructor, but the one in iTunes U's new course format is from 2008, not sure why.)
Love having the homework and being able to check things off so I can keep track of how much of the course I've completed.
