It's an online service that provides math and science courses. I have the algebra one, which my daughter has used a little while (she liked it but went back to NEM1 for now). A friend's daughter and son are using it and like it very much. It's similar to Teaching Textbooks.

We've been using Kinetic Books Algebra since August. I really like the way that it's laid out. I like Jacobs Algebra also and I already had it since my oldest used it last year. My 12yo is using both. She switches from one program to the other at the end of each chapter.
I plan on using their physics courses.

DS10 is using their Algebra1 course. So far it is going very well.

We are using their Conceptual Physics, which is an excellent program for introductory algebra-based physics. I have the disk (I think it cost $35) so it is not online, and we watch the short tutorials and do the problems. Lots of interactive problems that are fun to do. Highly recommended! By the way, we are also covering a textbook for physics, since Conceptual Physics seems to have less material that a standard text, but still, it is a great supplement.
