MyToons

MyToonsStill buggy, MyToons came out of beta today. What's MyToons? Basicly a website in the likes of YouTube, but only with non-x-rated animations. From their website:
MyToons.com is the world's greatest online animation community. It's the place where people who really love animation - from seasoned industry pros to rabid animation fans - can upload and share their creations and animated favorites with the entire world for free. There are so many exciting things to do and see it's hard not to have fun.
Technicly it could be way better, but it has the advantage that, at least for now, the garbage ratio is low. If you have some time to spend and like animations, this website might soon be your homepage.

Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs

Structure and Interpretation of Computer ProgramsStructure and Interpretation of Computer Programs has been MIT's introductory pre-professional computer science subject since 1981. It emphasizes the role of computer languages as vehicles for expressing knowledge and it presents basic principles of abstraction and modularity, together with essential techniques for designing and implementing computer languages. This course has had a worldwide impact on computer science curricula over the past two decades. The accompanying textbook by Hal Abelson, Gerald Jay Sussman, and Julie Sussman is available for purchase from the MIT Press, which also provides a freely available on-line version of the complete textbook.

Now, and freely available, are twenty video lectures by Hal Abelson and Gerald Jay Sussman, a complete presentation of the course, given in July 1986 for Hewlett-Packard employees, and professionally produced by Hewlett-Packard Television. The videos have been used extensively in corporate training at Hewlett-Packard and other companies, as well as at several universities and in MIT short courses for industry. Get them here!
