In an unprecedented move, Stanford University is collaborating with Apple Computer to allow public access a wide range of lectures, speeches, debates and other university content through iTunes.
No need to pay the $31,200 tuition. No need to live on campus. No need even to be a student. The nearly 500 tracks that constitute “Stanford on iTunes” are available to anyone willing to spend the few minutes it takes to download them from the Internet.

Also, Bono has launched a new global brand, Product Red, with a share of profits to go to the fight against Aids in Africa. Article here.
This seems pretty interesting, making it even more fashionable to support these causes... Amex is only doing 1% of each pound spent via their "red" cards, but if generally 40% of profits go to this cause, that could be a good chunk of change. I like the concept.
