iTunes outsells brick and mortar store Wal-Mart

News like this makes one wonder how long it will be before bloggers pass the New York Times as the top-selling authors in America.

There is no challenge for technology. The challenge is for people, teaching America’s youth what to do with it.
Technology will continue to evolve beyond our limited vision. The problem is that currently, we aren’t preparing students for the jobs that technology will create.
The Bill Gates foundation suggests that most elementary and junior high students won’t be prepared, because the jobs they’ll apply for haven’t even been created yet.
So, our challenge is to expand our vision and our perception of what’s to come.
Sadly, most teachers lack the ability to even create a blog, which frightens me.
