10 Days in Google Books Game

SUMMARY: Play the 10 Days in Google Books game from July 27 to August 5, 2009 for a chance to win a Sony Reader.

To promote their Google Books service, Google is running, from July 27 to August 5, 2009, the "10 Days in Google Books" game. Winners will receive a Sony Reader (e-book reader).

To participate, visit the game website and answer 5 questions (presumably questions can be answered by using the Google Books search engine). Then write an essay (50 words or less) on what reading will be like in 100 years. According to the site, entries will be judged "on originality, creativity, and clarity".


Note that the contest is only open to residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia.



Good luck! More information, including the full rules, are available here:
