Yes absolutely! We are working on both better filtering and on tools to help with the process of actually scheduling your learning into your free time, as the typical MOOC user tends to fit their learning alongside a job or full-time studies. Multiple lists is a great idea - we'll have a think about how to best implement it! Thanks for your kind words!
When evaluating MOOCS, I usually have a list of courses that sound cool, but I haven't investigated yet. Once I investigate them a bit more, I put the good ones on a much shorter list of classes which I actually plan to take.
Features to assist this process of narrowing down potential courses after discovering them (beyond ratings) would help you offer a better product than CourseTalk. Perhaps a calendar or multiple lists (interesting, will take, currently taking, finished -- you get the idea).
