Ideas
One direction I'd like open, free http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/ to develop extraordinarily in is Software Creativity & Research, Programming, Computer Science, Virtual Worlds, etc - WUAS is like Wikipedia with MIT OCW. First 20 computer science Ph.D. hires from top 5 universities - Stanford, MIT, Harvard, Yale, Princeton? Yes, if possible ...

Another is in language and computing.
