E-Book Eclectic vs. Book Brown Press Conference

Americans! Pixelated salt of the earth! This oldish gentleman whose paper-pages are yellowing is my contender, conservative incumbent Book Brown! Will you help me bring America out of the Dark Ages? Will you help me bring us to an environmentally friendly paperless world?

1. If an e-book were a person (metaphorically speaking) what would "a day in the life of an e-book" be like?

2. How is an e-book like a person and/or a human?

3. How is a human person like an e-book?

Book Brown's Cheap Smear Campaign!

Dear voters, do not be swayed by Book Brown's cheap smear campaign! The above photo is a fake! The true story, that Book Brown does not want you to hear, is that the above books are all escaped library convicts! They escaped during a library sale! Book brown then recruited them for his smear campaign against me. I promise to make the above books available on your mobile devices for only $9.99 and to recycle all those... never mind! 

To help me campaign just post your thoughts: 

1. If an e-book were a person what would it say to the "Google Books'" Search Engine?
2. What would it say to Amazon.com?
3. What would it say to Apple (the computer company)?

E-Book Eclectic's Make-Believe Game

[Disclaimer: This page is a game that was set up to complete a class project. The "public figure" featured is a fictionalization of a technological gadget.]

"Hello, I am E-Book Eclectic, and I am running for office against Book Brown. Vote for me! I promise free online subscriptions to your favorite magazines and newspapers and free songs on I-Tunes."

- E-Book Eclectic

Please support my campaign against Book Brown by posting an answer to one of these questions:

If an E-Book could talk,

1. What would it say to a hardcover or paperback?

2. What would it say to the "Google Books'" Search?

3. What would it say to the "Amazon" book search?

4. What would an e-book running for office (state or presidential) say to a rival book candidate?

5. If an e-book were a person (metaphorically speaking) what would "a day in the life of an e-book" be like?

6. How is an e-book like a person and/or a human?

7. How is a human person like an e-book?

HOW TO WIN THE GAME: The player that can make the e-book or the character "E-Book Eclectic" seem most realistic, sayings things that an e-book who was a person would say, wins the game. Disclaimer: winning in this game is its own reward. Aside from that, there is also the reward of showing off your cleverness ;)

GAME RULES & TIPS: To make this game interesting try to think metaphorically of an e-book as a person or of a person as an e-book and imagine how such an e-book-person would experience the world. You need to make the e-book-person say things and sound like both a person and like an e-book, so a good way to get started might be to look at the Wikipedia page for the e-book to get some ideas for comparisons between people and e-books. Other ideas: compare e-book psychology (if you can imagine it) to human psychology, or compare human’s inside machinery to the e-book’s machinery, or find some other basis for comparison between humans and e-books!

By the way, your answer post can be in the form of text, and image you have composed, an image with text, or a video clip you have created, so long as any of these make an attempt to talk about e-books metaphorically as people =)

Best of luck! May the cleverest win!
