Social Media to take away

WikiReaderIn another illustration of the divergent/convergent device debate, Social Media has split into the hand-held domain in the form of the WikiReader which claims to enable you to take-away perhaps the widest used invention of social media, WikiPedia.

The $99 device prunes the 1 TB of WikiPedia derived content into articles that fit onto a single 4GB SD card.

Although many may buy and use this device and an obvious saving in capacity will be the removal of images and other redundant features such as links, this begs several questions such as where is the rest of the content, who has decided what stays and what goes?
