Stat 202
It may be an odd title until you realize this is a real university level course. The course is a great introduction into data mining and its statistical aspects. This is a series of lectures given at Google but based on a graduate level statistics course being given at the same time by the same lecturer at Stanford University.
Despite its more technical nature, we have decided to include this series since it is presented in a way that many non-technical people can still understand.
Start with lecture 1 and then work your way to lecture 13.
