Attention Economics: A 15 minute course
Attention is about time directed to a purpose by people
Taking advantage of economics
What is scarce?
CPU cycles are cheap and getting cheaper, as is storage, as is bandwidth
Imagining that money is NOT scarce [well, maybe for some people, but money or lack thereof is one of those things that can be wished away only hypothetically]
Meme-orandum
Talks about all the work he used to have to do to figure out what people were saying…about him!
Make it easy to create and express attention
Like Second Life: “they’ll go and create the world for you!”
Hyperlinks are votes of attention
Create opportunities for economies of scale
