---+++ IPv6
   * [[http://www.isoc-ny.org/p2/?p=1713][IPv6 Talks by Vinton Cerf and G Huston]]
---+++ Sample Course Related Videos
   * This is a link to [[http://www.martincarlisle.com/][Martin Carlisle's]] home page. Martin has done some interesting work, backed by research studies, demonstrating improvement in learning outcomes when students are asked to watch short focused videos before class and then the class focusses on having the students do things in class. The in class work is then reviewed and, during the next class, good examples (The Gallery of Glory) and "bad" examples (The Isle of Infamy) are shown to and discussed with the students. Examples of Martin's videos can be found at [[http://www.youtube.com/user/carlislemc]].
   * [[http://vepexp.microsoft.com/24hitc/?s=41240][Technology in the Cloud]] Plus some Challenges and Opportunities. This is a presentation by Doug Terry, SIGOPS chair, and lead for the ACM cloud computing Tech Packs. 

---++Software 
This section contains pointers to actual software systems that could be of interest.
   * [[http://www.zeromq.org/][zeromq]] User layer software that encapsulates the socket API to simplify making  network connections and building distributed applications.
   * [[http://owncloud.org/index.php/Main_Page][ownCloud]] Software for a personal storage cloud
   * [[http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/storage/][Google Cloud Data Storage]] Google labs provides an API for storing data in their cloud. Actually the google labs area has a number of interesting APIs that we might be able to make use of in a course.
