Old vs. New

posted on November 16, 2011

Minutes ago both UPS and the Post Office stopped by to drop off packages within five minutes of each other. Inside the packages was this nice contrast of old vs. new.

What you see here is a beautifully printed photography book called Dark Score Stories promoting the new Stephen King mini series Bag of Bones and the new Kindle Fire. (affiliate link)

I can’t stop smiling because on one hand you have the old fashion book promoting a television show and on the other side you have a high tech gadget which I can read books and watch television shows on. Wonder if A&E will be making the show available on the Kindle or not?

Such a great contrast on multiple levels and both of them make me smile in a big way because while I may be hyper-digital, I still love printed books and photography.

Don’t worry, I plan full reviews of both of these. Not sure which will come first.

Good read? Share with others!

    Also a good demonstration that one media wont kill the other. It’s not the format it’s the content within the format that has all the power.

    Here’s a look at the Dark Score Stories book. I got one too and blogged about it:

    It’s very impressive, plus the book has a website where the photos come alive as moving pictures with sound. 

    Integration is the future.
