I was in Oklahoma this weekend for a 95th birthday party (note... not my own), and got a real close look at the iPod of 100 years ago. The Edison Disc Phonograph. As far back as the late 1800s, this little gizmo dominated the music scene... well, it kind of created the recorded music scene, quite frankly. Now, I'm not sure if it's ironic that I took pictures of it with my iPhone, a sibling in the current line of recorded music dominance, but it's at least interesting to note the juxtaposition.
Who knows what's next?
