Yeah your right, I did wonder that it was not mentioned before.

Cool to read about other ways of learning. Thanks for sharing

I've thought about aggregating all online conference talks, keynotes, workshop,etc videos into one site. Would this be useful to everyone here?

Yes. I would want a site that is better than a basic categorized list. You can have some kind of filtering and recommendation system for content that is interesting to you based on the tagging information and tracking of other people that have similar interests(think netflix). Ideally you should be able to create some kind of playlist of things that you would like to see and add it to that. The site should also track progress. Good luck though, I think it would be a welcome addition to the web.

Stanford has some engineering/comp sci courses available here: http://see.stanford.edu/default.aspx

Berkeley has a lot of lectures available online here: http://webcast.berkeley.edu/courses.php

There's also a lot available in Apple's iTunes U (http://www.apple.com/education/mobile-learning/), although it will require iTunes to be installed to access.

http://AcademicEarth.com is also great

I really love their entrepreneurship talks but they are way too short. I wish someone would upload an entire entrepreneurship class.
