I decided to try some library advocacy of a new kind, today - I went to Omegle and took on some strangers. Omegle connects you to a random stranger, and when one of you disconnects that's it, conversation over. So could I win over some people to the library cause..? The results are below - I have to say, at first it seemed too easy! Random Strangers love libraries, apparently. :) Attempt 1: already loves libraries...
Attempt 2: I end up asking him more questions than he asked me...
Attempt 3: FINE DODGER!
Attempt 4: thewikiman fails to excite conversational partner
Attempts 5 and 6: surely SOME people don't like libraries? Otherwise how come we're in such crisis?
Attempt 7: It's a tough sell, but someone has to step up to the plate. Censored for your own protection, he really was a filthy little man (or woman)
Attempt 8: finally, a conversion! This makes it all worthwhile...
