http://plato.stanford.edu/ and http://www.iep.utm.edu/ are pretty standard for philosophy materials I think, this one might not be anything new to anyone. Well, for that matter none of the links might be new.
http://www.youtube.com/edu and http://www.youtube.com/atgoogletalks , I think TED is pretty familiar as well.

Kind of been hording some sites and wasn't sure if anyone was interested or not, but some of you seemed at least a little bit intrigued by academic earth so why not right? Hope something helped.

1) Her Decipticon water bottle is kinda cool.
2) She's kinda hot.
3) Calling science a belief system pisses me off.
4) Her definition of Magic also pisses me off.
5) Slide at the 5:30 mark misspells "Relgion".
