Saw this ad whilst travelling the information highway, and thought the visual had an almost uncanny similarity to the Striphas piece from the print culture unit. Ownership of a "Kobo" (or any e-book) might enable the same societal maneuvering that the bookshelf did? I'd make a joke about the person making this ad really not caring about/thinking about this, but I'm guess they probably do (quite a bit).
