One evening at the library.....
I was returning a
book.. someone
else had reserved
it..

It would be interesting to talk to the next borrower.
Not many people are into alternative history.
How do we initiate a conversation with future readers
of this book?

A ryokan in kyoto, japan

We find this notebook on the table.
what is this book. Let’s open it.
omoide noto - memory notebook

We find stories penned by guest’s who had stayed in
this room in the past..

The omoide noto gives us an idea. Can we build an
online narrative or blog for a physical object or a
place?
And we build iwinkd.com

Going back to the book. Let’s say we had a message for
future readers

We go to iwinkd.com and create our message
“Loved this story. I
want to see the movie
too. I wonder if there is
some thing like this
about Japan winning
the war”

iwinkd gives us a tag
“your iwinkd tag is
hot8725”

We attach the tag to the book
and return the book to the library

The next borrower....

She finds our tag

She enters the tag at iwinkd
hot8725

She reads our message.....
and comments too
“Loved this story. I
want to see the movie
too. I wonder if there is
some thing like this
about Japan winning
the war”
“Search for fatherland
on youtube for a clip.
The DVD is hard to find”

Other future
readers can
embed
youtube, maps
in addition to
text
continuing the
conversation
we started
