Introduction to Parallel Programming course available

I’ve been more than a bit busy working on the (newly renamed) Interactive 3D Graphics course for Udacity, so have been tardy pointing out that this cool course is out now: Introduction to Parallel Programming. Taught by John Owens, David Luebke, and others, it uses CUDA as its basis for teaching. I look forward to taking it myself! It’s a free online course with some serious content, graded exercises, and much else to recommend it – a lot of time & effort (& money) was put into making it, so I expect it will be worth my while.

Oh, and I should also mention another new course, HTML5 Game Development, from experts at Google. It’s more 2D graphics related, but again looks like quite a serious course with a lot of chew.
