Attention Crisis
Posted : November 3, 2005 at 10:41 am [America/Los_Angeles]
“What information consumes is rather obvious: it consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention, and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it.”
— A VC - “The Looming Attention Crisis”
As my elder brother likes to say, “Knowledge (owing to abundance of Information) is free, Insight (owing to lack of attention) is expensive”.
