The Google Dilemma was actually entertaining to read. My favorite part was “Search Jew”. What made me enjoy reading it was the honesty of it. It gave both sides to the story: although Google didn’t necessarily say those things, the algorithms are created by the programmers. It reminds me of most things in life how they cover things by “going around it”. Then, it explains how google in fact is sort if like a gatekeeper. They may not specifically pick what shoes up but their algorithms look for specific criteria which suggests which results pop up. This does not necessarily mean that the best or most accurate information pops up. In fact, that is where my aggravation comes from when googling something. The most common websites appear with the most searched results, leaving me with no scholarly, accurate information.
