Just heard from a correspondent on the ground at Macworld about an interesting person involved with a website called changeyourreality.com who is interested in starting a “University of the Future” along renaissance-style themes and aesthetics, according to his website. He also told my friend about something called the BIL conference, a free TED alternative. Check it out!

@timboucher
Thanks for the links and for making the connection. I checked out both of the links you suggested.
With respect to your blog regarding open source teaching clubs I recommend you check: http://www.supercoolschool.com
It is founded by a friend, Steli Efti, and we’re going to be testing his product as an online platform for our University.
You should come to BIL this Feb. I’m confident you’re going to love it. Let’s stay in touch.
BIL sounds cool but I don’t have money to travel to the West Coast unfortunately! Supercoolschool sounds like fun too, but I canned my Facebook account long ago! You should talk to Dougald Hine though, I’ll get you guys in touch!
Perhaps you can put a Chipin on your blog and your readers can help you gather enough money to make it
Not a bad idea! I have a lot on my plate at the moment but I’ll see what I can do!
