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!
