It'd be really great to have some more women and people of color represented in your list of awesome people... Otherwise, a cool idea, and something I'm constantly wondering about myself!

Oh, i like this idea a lot. I like to read when i actually get to read books but i never know where to begin. I like that this is recommended by professionals in the field that i'm in as well other industries. Well done.

I dig it. I agree that the people is the most important entity. It'd be nice to see what the person is currently into. People go in waves. @tferriss might go on a stoicism kick for a few months, @sivers might go on a behavioral science bender. You could do that on your end by extrapolating their reading patterns (even pulling categories from titles using doc2vec or word2vec and some low-touch supervised learning) to inject a level of real-time alignment with the recommendations for people like me. Riding the example out, I might be a fan of both Tim Ferriss and Derek Sivers but if I'm really into behavioral psychology right now, then Sivers' recommendations would be more relevant to me right now. Great idea and execution @alexjv89. Pumped to see it, I'll be a user.

@johnnychan @tferriss @sivers - Thank you for the feedback. The insight about people going in waves - that makes a lot of sense. This comment is super insightful. We might be too early for real-time recommendations, but it definitely looks like something that we would be interested in incorporating. Thanks again.
