Article on Sal Khan, hedge fund manager turned online tutor to the masses.  Pretty neat, and shows the leverage the internet can have with education, and you wouldn't need alot of money.  Cheers!

Where is his toddler's red Elmo underneath his foot in that picture???  ;)

 

Amazingly efficient, productive and mind expanding! Praise God for the "power" behind the internet to "The Tree of Knowledge." Let us try passionately to seek out the GOOD things from this tree, where just as often, evil exists if one isn't too careful. And, let us prevent powerful money pools and sources of capital from making it a parallel dumbed down version of traditional t.v. and entertainment venues controlled and supplied by those same greedy MONEY POOLS.  imo

What an unbelievably useful website (khanacademy.org). I've been on it for hours.

Anyone can benefit from it, especially those with kids.

 

Thanks Parsad.
