Thanks for all the free sites. I think you get what you pay for though, for University studies, some of those sites simply are too generalized.

MIT World is not bad but it takes 2 hours just to get to the point... I like Special Agent Shum by The Jeremy Shum Invent Company (http://www.jeremyshuminvent....

They do cost $10.76 per season, but it's worth the $$$ because it's used by celebrities like Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, etc.

WOW - this list is amazing. You've just destroyed the rest of my "productive" day...

Two I'd add:

- Netflix's digital collection: Has a lot of great documentaries and other educational videos. Of course, you have to have a Netflix subscription.

- eduFire videos: Has full recorded eduFire classes from the best teachers / classes. Some really cool classes up, depending on what you're interested in.

Thanks for the time put into building this list, seriously awesome!

Maybe you should add:

reason.tv

great site with talks about the various fields of society

getdocued.net

a mashup of all the great documentary and lecture sites. Just the best of the best.

p.s. shouldnt it be archive.org instead of arkive.org?

Re: Intelligent Video: The Top Cultural & Educational Video Sites

Julian F. Müller — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 19:24:59 -0000

Hey this a very great list! Thanks!

I would add at least two:

1. reason.tv

It has hundrets of talks and discussion with some of the smartes ppl on earth.

2. getdocued.net

It is a mashup of all the good sites listed above. It tries to collect and review just the best of the best documentaries, lectures and talks from all ressources available.

p.s. shouldn't it be archive.org rather then arkive.org?

Great list! Two additions:

1. 0xdb: http://0xdb.org/

From Berlin with love: 0xdb collects information from numerous sources including allmovies, wikipedia and the internet movie database, amongst others, and offers users the chance to search and organise it in interesting ways. Where geographical data as to shot locations is available, for example, this can be plotted on google maps.

At this moment: 6,921 Movies

2. Pad.ma: http://pad.ma/

PAD.MA - short for Public Access Digital Media Archive - is an online archive of densely text-annotated video material, primarily footage and not finished films. The entire collection is searchable and viewable online, and is free to download for non- commercial use.

A very helpful list. I'm a big fan of online documentary and educational video and I've been waiting for a comprehensive list like this.

I'd also like to recommend our online video project. We produce documentary films and interviews that are exploring our modern day struggles within the ecological, economical, and social systems and how these battles aren't isolated but part of a interdependent whole.

We have over 200 short films and interviews that are free to watch and we even have two DVDs that we ship out to anywhere in the world for free as long as you share and "pay it forward".

The project is the Global Oneness Project and the URL is http://www.globalonenesspro...

Cheers and thanks for this great resource.

I highly recommend http://explore.org - a non-profit that showcases the good works of non-profits internationally. Lots of great educational topics from Tiananmen Square to Jerusalem to Orcas. The site itself hosts tons of film and photographs.
