Thanks to a reading flash mob in the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk in Russia, we now know that yesterday was the Day of Slavic Writing and Culture. To commemorate the holiday, a flash mob of bookworms called "Reading Bridges" gathered on five foot bridges to show off their love for books...and we're not talking the electronic kind but rather the old school printed sort. No word yet on how many people showed up and from the looks of it, it doesn't seem like the idea attracted a mob, exactly. But those are just details. Big kudos to the bibliophiles in Siberia. Who knows maybe this will inspire other book flash mobs. We certainly hope it does.
