checked out the MIT opencourseware website, and briefly visited the physics 
pages. they have published their demo tools and animations, which are quite 
neat, as well as their syllabus, their books, and session details. the study 
notes and actual stuff is yet to come. the home page unfortunately sounds a 
little like an MIT sales talk, but then they can't help it, since they know 
they are sharing (giving away?) their goldmine.
nevertheless, a commendable effort. check it out and post your reviews please

MIT OpenCourseWare Now Online

    peter303 writes "A sampling of MIT's [0] OpenCourseWare selections
    appered online today. The courses cover a full range of departments,
    but only a couple apiece. The material ranges ranges from just syllabi
    and calendars to extensive on-line course notes and interative demos.
    To succeed, OpenCourseWare must also be an advantage to MIT faculty and
    students, as well as the outside world. I think this may be possible,
    because it gives a uniform appearance and access point for online
    material, plus tools to build these."
