Christine Lagorio-Chafkin is an award-winning journalist who has covered culture, emerging technologies, and entrepreneurship for the past 15 years. She is senior writer at Inc. magazine and her work has appeared in many other publications, including The New York Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, and the Washington Post. She was raised on a sheep farm in rural Wisconsin and now lives in New York City with her husband, cats, and toddlers. Her favorite subreddits are r/blep and r/ShowerThoughts.
Reddit hails itself as "the front page of the Internet." It's the third most-visited website in the United States--and yet, millions of Americans have no idea what it is.
We Are the Nerds is an engrossing look deep inside this captivating, maddening enterprise, whose army of obsessed users have been credited with everything from solving cold case crimes and spurring tens of millions of dollars in charitable donations to seeding alt-right fury and landing Donald Trump in the White House. We Are the Nerds is a gripping start-up narrative: the story of how Reddit's founders, Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian, rose up from their suburban childhoods to become millionaires and create an icon of the digital age--before seeing the site engulfed in controversies and nearly losing control of it for good.
Based on Christine Lagorio-Chafkin's exclusive access to founders Ohanian and Huffman, We Are the Nerds is also a compelling exploration of the way we all communicate today--and how we got here. Reddit and its users have become a mirror of the Internet: it has dingy corners, shiny memes, malicious trolls, and a sometimes heart-melting ability to connect people across cultures, oceans, and ideological divides.

評分##讀完以後掩捲興嘆希望豆瓣也能有這樣一位記者願意追蹤齣一本書;雖然敘事風格流水帳化,但Reddit相關的故事人物的戲劇化值得如此敘述:YC的誕生、Swartz、一年賣掉公司成為百萬富翁的兩位年輕創始人、後續各有雄心但有不少弱點的CEO們、再到創始人迴歸帶領公司。Reddit和豆瓣小組的形態高度相似,其産品形成的時間也基本相同,讓我們可以洞見在完全開放的環境下社群的興亡,乃至最終對於美國社會産生的影響。若說産品形態及其演進、或說對社會的影響,我相信豆瓣更有得說。期待聽到豆瓣故事的這一天(以及期望我還能記得一些
