Did you know MIT posts all their course material online? And that it’s freely available to anyone on the internet (they call it MITOpenCourseWare)? If you want a little light summer reading, give it a try. This guy is, and he’s going to blog about the experience. It won’t count towards a degree, but if you’re just after the brainstuff, then why not. After all, knowledge is power, right? He’ll have plenty of knowledge once he’s done, I guess. His goal is to be able to pass the course ”Biological Systems in Nature and Medicine.” I think it’s a grand idea, and I’m looking forward to reading about it.
I’m going to have to cull some of my RSS feeds. It’s getting ridiculous. And to think: it wasn’t that long ago that I sent out a request for good blogs to read. I’ve gotten more than my fill now, thanks. Though, I have to say, if it’s really good, I’d love to have another ;-)

Free edumacation is always the best. I always do better with lectures though.
And I hear ya about the RSS feeds. My list at work is running at about 350+ after getting below 20 on Memorial Day.
