- GData API to Google Book Search -- search full text, get back metadata, modify "my library" collections, etc.
- Open and Free Courses at the CMU Open Learning Initiative -- rather than just a lecture and handout dump, it has interactive exercises and questions to help you practice and figure out whether you've learned the subject. (via timoreilly on Twitter)
