So I'm reading this book in the cab as I ride to work, and the bookmark I use is something I got from Landmark, with an ad for a social networking site on one side. The ad shows messages from three hip, young folks :
Jay: Hey! Nice book u r reading.
Saurabh: How would u rate dis book?
Priyanka: Can I borrow it after u r done?
The language they use, however, along with the fashion sense they display in their photos, (along with the reactions of my colleagues to the book) makes me think they would really not want to read the book I'm reading: Sanchayita, a selection of poetry by Ramdhari Singh 'Dinkar'. :)
PS. My blog feels kind of dirty for having SMS lingo on it, even in passing...
