It's interesting to read a book written in 1897. Writing styles have certainly changed a bit. But the original story is still good.
Now we have this;
Bram Stoker’s Dracula Coming to the Apple iPad
At first the article reminded me of Infocom, a company that produced text based games in the early days of computers. It too, seems to be an interactive story, but I would think that it is no more related to Stoker’s book than the Twilight series. Times change, and I probably haven't changed enough to enjoy this one. |
Yeah, I was also thinking of the old Sierra On-Line and their early take on the role-playing/interactive games and stories. And those begged for a slate/tablet device.
Funny but this is going to be Job's take on "reading" and where I expected him to tell everyone they need to go over plain old reading because reading is just too dull and boring...fits the whole fascist-illiteratti society we are building.
