A Free Education!


Bored of doing nothing? Do you want to learn something new from some of the best educators on earth? Then Read on.

Growing tired of the hours upon hours of monotonous stuffing of information into my already bursting frontal lobe I decided to do something fun. Jumping from one youtube video to the next, I found this weird Atlantis video you see below. I also found an amazing channel that offers you a world class education for free.

The Yale University Courses Channel is what I found. This channel provides full seminars recorded in actual classes. I was elated at this discovery.

Classes like these on the internet will probably not mean the end of university, but I find it quite amazing that you can get this level of education for free!

I am still looking for more of these channels, so if you find some, post the link in comments please. I will also keep searching.
