Attention Economy at ETECH 2006

March 6, 2006 in Applications by Administrator | No comments

This year again I have the opportunity to attend this “alpha geek” brainstorming session. The theme this year: The Attention Economy :
 
…bandwidth continues to broaden, storage grows ever larger and cheaper, and content keeps pouring from the firehose. How do we visualize all of this digital data, filter it, remix it, and access it in meaningful ways? The coming technical challenge is not about generating digital content-we have more than enough already. It’s time to do something with that data. It’s time to build The Attention Economy.
 
Broadcasting has to deal with attention a lot. All these new information and entertainment sources segment users attention. There is a lot of new content out there but the total attention pool is not necessarily increasing.
 
I’m sure I’ll get away with new ideas.
