A promotional and educational resource operated by the National Film and Sound Archive containing information about and extracts from a huge selection of Australian feature films, documentaries, television programmes, newsreels, short films, advertisements, animations, and home-movies produced over the last 100 years. The site brings together material from the collections of the National Film and Sound Archive, as well as the National Archives of Australia, the ABC, the Special Broadcasting Service, and the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSI). As well as credits and transcripts, many of the film clips are accompanied by detailed notes for teachers, pointing out the educational value of the material. There are also video interviews with Australian filmmakers and a series of thematic essays on different parts of the collection, all illustrated with film clips, ranging from Horror in Australian Cinema, to A Short History of Indigenous Filmmaking and a look at the Roads and Traffic Authority Collection.

The stated aim of this resource is to create a public space to discuss issues at the point where science and social policy intersect. The site presents a series of lectures, interviews and readings from various conferences and symposia with the emphasis on serious current scientific research and its moral, ethical and philosophical implications. The subjects covered include cognitive science, neuroscience, stem cell research, oncology, evolution and aging. The site has much that is interesting but of particular note are the proceedings of the Beyond Belief conference, a lively wide-ranging conference on science and religion featuring a large group of eminent scientists and philosophers, including Richard Dawkins, biologist and philosopher Francisco J. Ayala, planetary scientist Carolyn Porco and co-founder and Director of The Science Network Roger Bingham. TSN’s website features streaming videos and podcasts, which are also available for download.

A monthly seminar series, hosted by Stewart Brand, founder of The Long Now Foundation. The SALT seminars were started in 2003 with the aim of building "a compelling body of ideas about long-term thinking to help nudge civilization toward our goal of making long-term thinking automatic and common instead of difficult and rare". The website includes podcasts from a wide range of speakers, including geneticist Craig Ventner, technologist Ray Kurzweil and musician Brian Eno. A recurring concern is the use of environmental resources, but all speakers, from whatever discipline, are encouraged to frame their thoughts with reference to the deep past and the deep future: ie. to look 10,000 years ahead to combat the short-term thinking that the Long Now Foundation sees as endemic in modern culture. The entire archive of podcasts is available and new seminars are streamed live. Video of the seminars is available to members of the Long Now Foundation.
