Free lectures from Academic Earth

March 25, 2009

Academic Earth has launched and provides the free streaming of world class lectures from the likes of Berkeley, Havard, MIT, Yale, Princeton and Stanford. You can work your way through hundreds of lectures by subject, university, ‘instructor’ and theme. It’s fantastic content to have access to – especially at the price of free.

New theme

March 7, 2009

The newtechtranslated  site is powered by WordPress and is based on a theme from iThemes. The combination makes for an easy to set up site and plenty of customisation. I spent a lot of time looking for themes and will post some of the good sites I found – some great free themes out there. I went with the iThemes theme because it had a nice homepage and simple backend admin for managing the images, banners and widgets.
