Here are a couple of things that crossed my screen that you might find
interesting:

CrisisCommunicator. The leader of this project describes CrisisCommunicator
this way:

The CrisisCommunicator is a blueprint for a comprehensive tool that will
leverage todays mobile computing technology (think: tablets) and disaster
communication modalities (think: radio) to aid disaster responders in
streamlining their response.

It is being designed to work with zero internet connectivity. For the
non-technical person, this is best described as google maps, with live
updates, on your tablet, even with no internet. For the computer techie,
think of it as a swarm of nodes on a broad-cast only network. For the
Amateur Radio Enthusiast, think of it as Xastir, with some additional
features, re-built native on Android.

Fundamentals of DSP. This online class describes some of the basics of
digital signal processing. Its sponsored by Texas Instruments, so of course
it talks about TI products, but has some good basic information about the
topic as well.
