Bringin' it back old school.....

CafeScribe has a solution to the impersonal world of ebooks - scratch n' sniff smelly stickers that smell like old musty books.

According to CafeScribe, "In a survey of 600 college students 43% identified smell –- either new book smell or old -- as the thing they most love about books as physical objects. A majority (62%) also preferred purchasing used textbooks over new or electronic textbooks, despite the fact that e-textbooks are generally a third less expensive than used textbooks."

If only someone would make a scratch n' sniff sticker of old sweaty gym socks so I could pretend I'm exercising while I'm vacumming my house.
