Ex-Stanford Prof Starts a Totally Free Online School

Not specifically pharmacy-related, but this story has been getting a lot of play on the various tech blogs this week
Sebastian Thrun is leaving his post as a researcher and professor at Stanford to start Udacity, which will teach Computer Science college courses online and completely free of charge. The first two courses are CS 101: Building a Search Engine and CS 373: Programming a Robotic Car.
Lots of sites have picked up this story, but here's a link to the one at Gizmodo which has a video.
