i just can’t get over how exciting it is to see Mises Institute audio/video on iTunes U. I pulled mine up this morning and there was a big banner for Ralph Raico’s History: The Struggle for Liberty. Now, here you have a historian who trained under Mises, Hayek, and Rothbard in equal measure. He is providing a sweeping reinterpretation of the history of liberty here. No longer does it matter whether he has a position at Cambridge or Yale; he is now the world’s teacher, from the the offices of the Institute to digital devices around the planet. Professor Raico is fortunate to live to see this happen.

Seriously, this is amazing: I was thinking yesterday about how the web allows me to communicate with people from around the world. The revolution may not be televised, but it will be blogged, tweeted, Facebooked, YouTubed, Googled, podcasted, Stumble(d)Upon, dugg, emailed, skyped, and everything else.
Art Carden, so true!

It is exciting. Every time I’ve gone to iTunes U in the store, a LvMi U banner has been at the top.
I must say stumbling on it was a bit of a welcome surprise to me. Now all those commutes, grass cutting, etc. Can be a bit more productive. Way to go Mises. The internet, the best example of a free market we have today.
All of it is great, seeing the expansion of the information going digital and freely accessible, but the problem of it all being considered “non-mainstream” or “fringe” still exists and just making it available doesn’t overcome this fact.
