Coursera has a nice course on Machine Learning[0] and the 4th and 5th week deal with Neural Networks specifically if anyone wants to learn more and get his hands dirty with octave/matlab code.<p>[0] <a href="https://www.coursera.org/course/ml" rel="nofollow">https://www.coursera.org/course/ml</a>
Udacity has the grad level, Machine Learning Course available as well. However, they are heavier on theory and algorithms, and less on programming:<p><a href="https://www.udacity.com/course/ud675" rel="nofollow">https://www.udacity.com/course/ud675</a><p><a href="https://www.udacity.com/course/ud741" rel="nofollow">https://www.udacity.com/course/ud741</a>
Caltech also has a fantastic open sourced machine learning course[1]. In fact, students taking the class are instructed to watch these lectures, and class-time is used for answering questions about lectures/homework.

I'm really digging this information. Thanks for gathering/writing it. I know you didn't solicit requests for the design of your website, but man that right hand side bar is crazy unorthodox and gave me a difficult time with focusing on content. Not trying to cramp your style, just trying to give you some constructive criticism.
I already learned three new things, and I only skimmed a couple of articles. Thanks, I'm going to save this for use over several weeks of lunch breaks
