There are some pretty advanced topics there. Interesting.

I am from India and I am really happy that IIT and IISc are putting these online. However, I have a feeling that American audience will be put off by the accent, speed, or just the teaching style. I saw some pretty awful comments for these videos some time ago. But then again what I saw may not be representative.

Watching Prof. Kamala Krithivasan teaching Automata theory in full sari avatar was just mind blowing :) I think I'm gonna watch this course.

One of the most under advertised open course content on web. Glad to see this.

I tried posting these to HN some time back but the submission didn't gain any traction. Glad to see it pop up on front page of HN today.

A couple of these courses on physics and computer science were recorded when I was enrolled.

So glad for this. Only problem is the constant buffering of videos.

Do the download links mostly work? I'm going to download a couple this evening. Streaming works a lot better when its over wired GB ethernet from my fileserver in the basement.

archive.org should be mirroring this, like many other university courses they already have copies of.

(Whoops, see: "The copyrights are owned jointly by the MHRD, IITs/IISc and the faculty." and "... likely to be distributed under a Creative Commons license in the future." So for licensing / copyright reasons the whole project is likely DOA, which is too bad.)

Wow - great to see IIT taking the lead on this. This can dramatically advance the engineering education across India. Of course the limiting factor in MOOCs is student attention. You still need to put in the time to learn.

http://coursebuffet.com/s/0/0/nptel/0 Here are all the courses that are full courses. On NPTEL some of the courses are just notes. We went through it all so you don't have to.
