While watching this I felt like the future has arrived. 

A smart and committed person took a good idea online.

The results and implication are amazing.

This is only the beginning.

Coursera is new and still in beta http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coursera

Watching this touched me emotionally like a chick flick does.

Quality learning reaching many thousands for free globally has massive implications.

Tow of my passions are education and media.

Here is a happy marriage of my passions.
