This site, which also hosts the 100 Years of Cinema in Europe, provides information on European films distributed in cinemas since 1995 that serves as a useful companion to the European Audiovisual Observatory project. The main aim is to provide greater information about the business side of film-making, giving details of titles, directors, distributers (in Europe and the world) and so on. An interesting feature is the prominence given to the Euro Kids Network 1996 - 2000 project, the aim of which is to make films available to children either in cinemas on in classrooms, all over Europe. The site is also available in French and Italian languages.

Launched in 2006, the Open University's OpenLearn website has grown to provide over 8000 study hours of video, audio and print materials from OU courses. It is not necessary to be a student of the OU to use the resources. OpenLearn does not of itself grant degrees or award credits, but there is a link for those who wish to consider formal Study at the OU. LearningSpace units are divided up into the subject areas of Body & Mind, Education, History & the Arts, Languages, Money & Management, Nature & Environment, Science, Maths & Technology, and Society. There is substantial video content included (Flash).
In 2010 OpenLearn merged with open2.net, the site that supported OU-produced BBC general programming. So now OpenLearn also gives access to topical and interactive content, from expert blogs, to videos and games that enrich these programmes.

All praise also to a site which describes itself as ‘always under construction’.
