Stanford on iTunes is by far the most thought-provoking concept I've seen in a while.

They are using the iTunes browser to offer up lectures and supporting material.

Factor in that iTunes handles audio, video and text (.pdf).

And now connect to iPod.

Obvious really.

Of course, once you start considering what Apple might do with their next generation iPod...

Steve Jobs gave an address at Stanford last summer. There's a nice line in there that goes as follows:

You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.

This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
