Welcome to episode #174 of Six Pixels Of Separation – The Twist Image Podcast . This is also episode #18 of Media Hacks . If you felt like the conversation went a little kooky when we tried to discuss, "what is a book?" on the last episode of Media Hacks, you’ll be pleased to know we get just as lost trying to figure out "what is literacy?" If that wasn’t enough the four of us attempt to discuss the value of Google Wave (only C.C. has actually used it). There’s some discussion about school books, magazines and newspapers as well. Enjoy…
