I need help with my iPod, please?

ok, so my cousin, in his depths of curiosity to see what would happen, plugged my 4GB iPod in my laptop, then he right-clicked the icon in My Computer... Then he left clicked FORMAT. Then... AAARGH!!! All my data was deleted, darn it! Now, my iPod is acting only like a glorified and uber expensive usb storage device/flash drive. No matter what songs I put in it, the player itself doesn't seem to recognize it as a song. Ok, so my question is: How do I fix it so it recognizes and plays songs and videos again? Thanks, y'all~!!!

    Does it get recognized by iTunes anymore? If so, you can restore it from there. If not, bring it to an Apple Store. They can help you out and restore it to the original factory settings.
