You Tube Revolution, We want video lectures of best professor on these website

You Tube has revolutionized the way we entertain ourselves. You Tube has rightly so been awarded the Times Best Invention. It should only be a matter of time when it revolutionized the way education is imparted. The beginning has been made you can get free piano lessons, algebra lessons among plethora of other. MIT's open source project is a big push in the direction of making educational material available to masses the only thing which it lacks is the complete video lectures and that is where sites like You Tube, Live Digital are going to come in. My prediction would be it could be done in just one single semester, all you need is bunch of kids with a camcorder in hand recording all the lessons in their class and posting for the world to benefit. Its bound to happen the question is how soon its going to happen and believe me this is going to revolutionize the way the standard of education all over the worldwill rise. Remember Dr. Gilbert Strang's lecture and how much they influence the Linear Algebra. For example I am interested in Video Lectures on Complex Analysis, Topology, Compiler designing, Real Analysis, Measure Theory and so many things. All it is required that somebody tells these professors that how much they can push the frontier of education by including their video lectures and posting it on internet and if you are a student and feel that your professor is an awesome teacher go ahead post his video lecture on internet.
