Has anyone here looked at Udacity's open CS101 course (http://www.udacity.com/overview/Course/cs101) that started this week? The goal of the seven week course is to build a web crawler. So far, I'm not impressed with the speed or content of the course. I was wondering what anyone here may think of it.

You have to remember that this course assumes no prior computer programming knowledge. I agree, it is starting out very basic. Give it some more time. These guys have PhDs from MIT and/or have taught at Stanford. They know what they are doing.

It seems to me that they're not starting with good Python practices, really, or even the terminology I'd expect.
