class followup: Tuesday 1/26

Here is the link to the podcast of the interview with Fred Turner,“Designing for Democracy in the American Counterculture” that I summarized at the end of class.

Now here are two interesting podcasts form NPR’s All Things Considered. The first is a commentary about e-readers from author Eric Weiner and the second is a story about why if Jesus were alive today he would have a blog (it’s really a story about the Pope’s call for priest’s to blog).
