Dataclysm: Who We Are by Christian Rudder
2.0
What do white people like? Will you get more dates if you spell "what" as "wut" (answer: no)? If you love the idea of finding trends and using light social science to poke through data derived from online dating sites, go read http://blog.okcupid.com/, probably my second favorite blog of all time.
Don't real Dataclysm, the book the blog became. Actually, "Dont read the book the book the blog became" is pretty good general advice. Like most, this takes the awesome content and fills it out into an acceptable book length it with thousands of words of dull rambling and barely any additions to the good stuff.
Plus, Christian Rudder loves taking data and running with it, jumping to all sorts of really, really, REALLY frustratingly stupid conclusions.
