I’ve always wanted to go to U.C. Berkeley

Sergey Brin of Google presents at a U.C. Berkeley class “Search Engines: Technology, Society and Business”

With the addition of six full college classes from U.C. Berkeley now on Google Video (over 250 hours), it’s getting to feel more like I might be able to attend someday in the not too distant future.

“Visitors will find a half-dozen Berkeley courses in their entirety, including “Physics for Future Presidents,” “Integrative Biology,” and “Search Engines: Technology, Society and Business,” featuring a lecture by Google co-founder Sergey Brin.”

Who knows, maybe Berkeley will pull out all the stops on their open source educational experiment and start doing this with livecasts and open up their class Q&A for the world’s students to participate. If done right, can you imagine the potential dialog and learning that could take place? It boggles my mind. Click here to see U.C. Berkeley’s dedicated Google video page (they’re the first college to have their own dedicated video page on Google).

Hi Astha! Thanks for stopping by – I hope you are well. We are around. We’ve spent time participating in discussions last week rather than posting on the blog – but no worries…always more to come here.

I am gathering the info for my review of the recruiting/employer branding efforts happening on the F500 blogs. We will post soon :-)

My favorite two bloggers – I was wondering the same thing! I know you’ve been a busy gal lately Shannon…but with all the online happenings making news recently – I was hoping to read your take on those lucky Youtube guys! I’ll be checking in later!

I LOVE that we are your favorite bloggers! Actually – I think that Matt (from Yahoo! HotJobs) has a good post discussing some possibilities for recruitment advertising and employer branding that will come of the Google / YouTube deal – you can see matt’s post here – http://www.jobsearchmarketing.com/2006/10/what_googleyout.html
