60 Minutes: Apps for Autism

I just caught up on my DVR and wanted to share this week's feature on 60 Minutes regarding the hot topic of iPads and iTouches in the world of autism. I had mixed reactions throughout the piece, but I think it's worth a view if you have time.

My favorites were definitely the University of Pittsburgh's brain scan work (with a Temple Grandin appearance!) and the discovery of a new passion (opera! can you believe that?) for Nuno, a 10-year old with autism that was featured during the piece.
