Description

We could extend https://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/books.html and add links to articles like https://engineering.linkedin.com/blog/2018/01/now-you-see-me--now-you-dont--linkedins-real-time-presence-platf and https://www.paypal-engineering.com/2016/05/11/squbs-a-new-reactive-way-for-paypal-to-build-applications/ (and any other good stories we know/find) there. Perhaps rename the page.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate the documentation file 'additional/books.html' in the akka core repository, add the suggested article links (from LinkedIn and PayPal), and consider renaming the page to reflect the broader scope.
