Google’s AI overview is so laughably bad it’s making the search engine completely unusable. It’s pushing me to chatGPT which I don’t want to use regularly. @alphabetinc.bsky.social

This is terrifying, for journalism, a free press and democracy. Wish I could support Ron Charles book column and ditch the rest.
Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos's changes to the opinion pages have led subscribers to cancel in droves. It's the third wave of mass cancellations at the Post in just a few months.

Also should I be using hashtags here or not?
I feel like I should know this but if I preorder an audiobook on @libro.fm does that pre-order help the author the way pre-orders are supposed to? For Neilson or rankings? #authors #publishing #preorder

Where Is the Kid Lit Community Online?
As social media communities splinter, authors and publishers wonder where their next digital water cooler will be.

Well my twitter/x account was hacked and then deleted, and they offer no tech support for that apparently, so that was the last nail in that coffin!

When I was a buyer at a large indie, my rule of thumb was:
1 preorder: huh, let me take a closer look at this one
2 preorders: we need to stock this book
3 preorders: we should order enough to face this out
4+ preorders: this should be on front-of-store display
1 preorder: huh, let me take a closer look at this one
2 preorders: we need to stock this book
3 preorders: we should order enough to face this out
4+ preorders: this should be on front-of-store display
More detail: When booksellers get pre-orders, it's a quantitative and qualitative signal that there is like *something here* about a book. The avalanche of new books out there is hard to communicate if you're not in the industry, and pre-orders are one of vanishingly few signals. It is a real thing!
The thing about pre-orders: If you pre-order thru an indie bookstore (which generally doesn't cost you up-front!) it is HUGE for the lifeblood of the book, it is a boost to authors, the publisher, and the booksellers who steward this life. It's a little thing but it's meaningful should this inspire!

Since there are a lot of new people here: I will point out once again that Paul Singer, the billionaire who owns Barnes & Noble and Waterstones, donated $5m to a MAGA SuperPAC earlier this year, and that’s the money we know about.
