Mining of Massive Datasets (mmds.org)

Deadlines are at the 29th of November. Best of luck

What amazed me is how much of this is 1990s stuff.

massive is an understatement. I have only dealt with puny GB sized data sets. They deal with vectors which cannot fit into main memory.

This coursera course was taken down, but it is now up and running at lagunita.stanford.edu [0], which uses edx's open source platform [1]. The same happened to other stanford courses previously on coursera, you can find them here [2], including Compilers, Automata Theory, and Convex Optimization.
