MIT Everyware

TeachingMachines writes "David Diamond has written a very readable article at Wired News titled MIT Everyware that follows up on MIT's OpenCourseWare initiative (previous story). It turns out that one of the most popular courses has been '6.170 Laboratory in Software Engineering, Fall 2001.' Diamond notes that '[u]ltimately, MIT officials know, OpenCourseWare's success depends on the emergence of online communities to support individual courses.'"

    Name one country in your list where people outside of these countries are clamoring to get in. None? Why do you suppose that is?

    You neglected intent. Many were mistakes, but not all. You also neglected UN involvement with some of these (a common mistake these days).

    Enjoying ourselves? Some are, some aren't. How about you?

    Blame slashdot readers for US government policy?
    That's like blaming your neighbor for bumping you when the bus turns a corner. He isn't driving.
