Are Books the New Tablet? -- Fast Company

Mar 02

This has been reblogging around, but I had a hard time tracking down the original version. Now that I found it, I’m reblogging, and you should too, because there’s a nice 11x17 version you can download for printing. idea-obscura: i’ve been thinking of doing this for a while now. after i saw this floating around, i wanted to make my own version to hang on my wall. and knowing me, well, i had to make it all ~shnazzy~ so i made this 11x17 poster. i made it so you can download yourself one too, if you like. it’s a nice PDF file so you can take that to Kinko’s and blow it up and hang it nicely in your room or whateva.
