"read you like a book"

I really enjoyed our first night of class, and if there's one part I want to remember, it would have to be our discussion about how physical books shape us. I had never really thought that much about the phrase "read you like a book" until after Anne made that comparison. I think it was when she mentioned that we both had spines that it really clicked. Books, and the way we handle and read them, are certainly a reflection of how we interact/communicate with someone else.

That said, how are digital texts going to change things? How will we respond? If things progress to the point of Vinge's future world, what phrase will replace "read you like a book?" "Scroll you like a webpage?" We should come up with a list as a class and pick the best ones.
