If anyone is interested in sharing any ideas for new books to add, donating any books, or helping in any other way, please feel free to contact us as we’d love to hear from you. We’re really just trying to build a massive library at our office (or future new location), and my entire personal book collection will be transferred to this to help speed up the process of creating a large list as fast as possible, to help the network grow. The list is only a few days old (and most of it hasn’t even arrived from Amazon yet!)
Our current heuristics for purchasing new books:
Think of Subject (Google+Amazon+Wiki+?) -> Search for 3-10 highest reviewed books (Amazon) -> Purchase ($!) -> Add to Master List (Google Sheets) -> Aggregate Tons of Data (Amazon+Google+?) -> Continue Building List of Books (Referrals+Search+Reviews) -> Perform Tons of Regression Analysis to Learn (?!#?!) -> Figure out all steps for Data/Sheet to update in Real-Time (this is the largest unknown variable in the equation, and we need to get to this point as fast as possible to properly scale the idea)
We’ve self funded the books that are on the current list over the last few days, by purchasing them on Amazon, and we have 500-1000 more unique titles to add in the coming week, so I hope that this is a start to something great. Please let me/us know if there’s anything we could do to improve. Thank you for your time reading this.
