iPods and social isolation (redux)

Regarding my previous post about egocasting, Adam had the following comment:
There is no such thing as a "unique life soundtrack" without participation in society on some level; if keeping the earbuds in all the time distracts you from the world, whatever's playing on the earbuds will lose their context.
On a related note, comments will be enabled here shortly. Thanks to the three of you who keep goading me.

About
Moira Burke

Psst! This is the blog of Moira Burke, a Ph.D. student in the HCI Institute at Carnegie Mellon University.

Rife with derivative pop culture blather, this site occasionally features thoughts on social psychology, usability, aesthetics, and the general meanderings of someone figuring out the meaning of life. Won't you help me find it?
