Hmmm. Google having significant influence on the lowest level of my hardware...

A small oversight to be sure. [lol]

If we assume that students are rational actors making decisions between traditional teaching methods and KA...and we assume that KA, students, and teachers all have the same end go…

In the space of 18 months ending Feb of this year the site has gone from reaching 1 million to 6 million students per month. I quantify the value of the product by the demand.

Have you been to the site and watched a lecture? There are comments of other students who watched that video. These comments are questions and answers about what was discussed. The…

I know it is a hard pill to swallow that such a pedagogical luddite such as Sal Khan is having such a broad and important impact on learning when the professionals are struggling m…

All email is 'in the cloud' now...So Enigmail is too much of a hassle for my recipients. At least Thunderbird and Evolution are being steadily developed now![I jest!]

You do realize Mint is making money off you too...right? http://www.linuxmint.com/searchengines.php

It's clearly not baseless paranoia anymore.
