Startup Engineering

A Coursera course from Stanford. I have already completed a Coursera course once, enrolling for this course was obvious just from reading the title. The technical basis taught in the first two weeks is very current and relevant. If you have some technical background it will seem very basic but I imagine that the marketing and business side will be an eye opener for me.

MOOCs are wonderful. Consider what you had to do to attend courses form Stanford, Tel Aviv university or any other before. The course selection is diverse, from computer science to arts. It costs the time you spend listening and doing your assignments.
