Leigh’s comments from the Open as in book group.

I'll add those book suggestions to the shelf shortly.

As for Algorithms of Oppression, I thought the storytelling could be improved to make it more readable for a wider audience. But I really appreciated the way it forced me to analyse my Google complacency.

The author said something about Google searches as cultural artifacts that really resonated.

Hello!

I'm new to the group and I come with suggestions!

I'd love to read Susan Orlean's The Library Book https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

and

Christine Lagario-Chafkin's We are the Nerds: The birth and Tumultuous Life of REDDIT, the Internet's Culture Laboratory https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...

Thanks for organizing this. I missed the previous discussion but was happy to have a reason to read Algorithms of Oppression.
