Sixth Chapter … Scott F. Parker, “Philosophy by iPod”

Great chapter. Opening couple of pages about benefits of iPod in foreign country while using treadmill but the balance is a very well written discussion about the benefits of Philosophipod and the democratization of media and the (nearly) universal access to philosophy. Whether or not this universal access is a threat to academia or a desired outgrowth remains to be seen. Parker brings up great topics of authority, interactivity, version control, objectivity, etc.
