SciTalks

One of these days I will put together a list of Web2.0 links for scientists, but in the meantime I would like to let you know about SciTalks. I found this site on the recommendation of some bloggers who also keep up on the science Web2.0, Coturnix and Alex Palazzo.

SciTalks is a website where scientists can upload and post scientific lectures/seminars. To quote the site:

Scitalks is important and needed. In the general trend toward democratizing education, we hope that it can become an important tool for educators, home schoolers and those who are wanting to educate themselves.

I haven't had time to check out much of the content, but it looks like a really great tool. I believe the next step is to get universities to post the videos from their weekly seminar series. That would really help level the playing field across academics.
