Coooooooool! I had no idea you could do that in a spreadsheet! Since the check poll has closed, I would say go ahead with the poll ASAP! Please include a link to the spreadsheet on the poll and highlight the selected books so people can find the relevant ones easily. I dehighlight and rehighlight each month for my hackerspace club...

Cool stuff! How do we pick the "finalists" though? They all are very interesting :)
Erik Moeller Tue 30 Jan 2018 1:21AM
I've used the RNG to pick five books from the spreadsheet, and I suggest we each pick our top 3 among those (I narrowed it to 3 so we have to make an additional tradeoff choice beyond the ranking, but I figure we'll iterate on the voting process as we go).
This is my first Lomio vote so please let me know if I messed anything up :)

Reading Selection 3rd Book Closed Sun 29 Apr 2018 10:02PM
The good news is we have chosen our next reading: Ours to Hack and to Own: The Rise of Platform Cooperativism.
The bad news is I was the person who put that on the list, meaning that I am facilitating twice in a row -- if anyone would rather facilitate this one, feel free. ;-)
Rank your choices.

Okay, I think we're almost ready to get started. I've added a random book selector to the spreadsheet, here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZvZ_MLq1dAVBCY7-e9Iylg-qxWYqkcptjvOnkyOTeTA/edit#gid=570362544
Feel free to tweak it. If that works for folks, in the next few days, I'll run it to generate options for a poll. So please get your suggestions into the "Proposed Books" section now if you haven't already :-)
