My bid was already the eighth, and no wonder!
Wouldn’t you love to acquire these items all on offer in the same eBay auction?
- Item: an unlocked Motorola Razr quad-band phone, the jetset special, donated by Cory Doctorow of BoingBoing. Zoom camera, polyphonic ringtones–and unlocked, so you can pop in a simcard for any carrier or any country you choose.
- Item: A first-edition of Eastern Standard Tribe, the Locus-finalist new novel written by Cory Doctorow, signed by Cory Doctorow, and donated by Cory Doctorow.
- Item: The satisfaction of know that your pounds sterling go to Suw (of Chocolate and Vodka) to be used for the benefit of the Open Rights Group, London-based cyberactivists who are trying to stop bigcos from planting an evil Broadcast Flag in Europe.
As the great Omar Khayyam might have remarked,
A book of sci-fi underneath the bough,
Some chocolate, some vodka (mmm), and thou
Beside me chatting on a Razr cellphone
That once belonged to Cory Doctorow…
In short, please point all your blog readers right over to eBay!
