I’ll show you mine, if you’ll show me yours?

Excusez-moi!

Maybe not so good, or maybe…?

How about “BRAGUETTE”

If you stroll around Paris, you can’t miss
seeing Parisians carting around that most famous staple of their society: The Baguette.
It is baked fresh daily. and served with just about everything.

In fact my favorite is BANH MI, which roughly translated, is a Vietnamese sandwich born
from the colonial days when the French ruled
that part of the world.

French law bans walking past a boulangerie
without at least pinching or tasting,
the freshly made offerings (baguettes)
from the local artisans, ‘er bakers.

As a writer, I find people don’t really want to have to enlarge an ad on my website in order to read the copy. And when they do, they can’t take in the whole ad at the same time.

There’s also the problem of how to display any folding pieces, anything dimensional or anything where the production matters (special varnishes, etc.)

And trying to reach over an ECD’s desk to point out something on his monitor is pretty awkward.

Then again, in a physical book, showing online work is tough. The storyboard-a-banner-ad thing doesn’t really work.

Personally, I use my website as the initial touch – when I email people, or if they need to see my work right away. When I go to an in-person interview, I try to bring my physical book. (Although if it’s a digital agency, sometimes I’ll just bring my laptop.)

had a gal I was interviewing with scold me on not bringing a hard copy. I thought it said more about her than me.

for the record, I’m with Dee, we should keep calling it a book. isn’t kindle already redefining what a book could/should be?
