In response to John Scalzi’s e-publishing bingo card, Flickr user Shmuel 510 put together a “Traditional Publishing Bingo Card” containing the arguments he’s tired of hearing in favor of traditional publishing. Like Scalzi’s card, it’s still missing some (in particular, the “smell of books” question again goes unmentioned) but also like that card, it’s particularly dead on in what it does have. It was rather hard picking just four squares to excerpt for this posting.
(Found via BoingBoing.)
Yeah, they should’ve replaced “Evidence that doesn’t fit my beliefs is wrong” with “Nothing beats the feel and smell of real books.”
And the Wiki square seems odd here, so maybe it should be replaced with “You can’t read an ebook in the tub.”
Moriah Jovan did one, too.
ETA: she does mention the smell, as well. I especially like the highlight in color one ^^
