- Getting a piece of the action: The attention economy
- The AttentionTrust gang, led by Steve Gillmor, Seth Goldstein and Ed Batista, held court during a session at the Syndicate conference.

- AttentionTrust recorder to prove time = money
- In July I wrote about the debut of AttentionTrust.org, a non-profit promoting the basic rights of attention owners. Attention is this case is related to what you do online. On Tuesday the organization will launch the AttentionTrust Recorder, a royalty-free, open sourced downloadable piece of code that keeps track of...

- What's AttentionTrust.org all about?
- The commodities in short supply for anyone who has moved fully into the digital world are time and attention. So much data, interaction and transaction, so little time and filtering. We have the benefit of instant access to information of all kinds and billions of conversations, but primitive ways to...

- Liveblogging AttentionTrust and GestureBank Announcements
- Continued coverage of the AttentionTrust luncheon follows:Comments from Seth Goldstein: Seth discusses attention attributes that have quantified value, email addresses, etc. On the Internet, our gestures (what we do, what we dont do) form this mass of data.

- As I was saying
- When I met with Dan Farber last week to discuss closing InfoRouter down, we agreed I'd use a last post to both wind up the blog and detail my future plans. Although I'd intended to write this and release it tomorrow Monday it seems appropriate to work on it tonight...

- Reaching the world
- At breakfast yesterday, Mike Arrington made it clear that if I didn't show up at his party, he would take it personally. I made it clear I would but first I wanted him to kick somebody important down or off the list or everyone down the list and insert me...

- And the Wind Cries Larry
- The last few days have seen a real ramp up of attention/gesture stuff. The combination of Bloggercon and Supernova this week and Gnomedex next week have brought many of the constituents of the so-called Attention Economy into view. One of the incipient players--Jellyfish--are embargoing their story until Monday to take...

- Gang Reforms for Reunion Tour
- Recorded an Attention Deficit Theatre today, and with just a few minutes to go, Doc and I noticed that what had actually occurred was a Gillmor Gang. So I'll mix this one and skip over last week's show with Hugh MacLeod to run this one this weekend. That makes 2...

- Back in the USSR
- Nick Carr is truly the gift that keeps on giving. His latest can-opener concerns the alleged Google strategy of converting all reading interfaces to search and keyword (i.e. tagging) interfaces. Nick's genius (I think he is the leader in the post-dvorak world of meme-baiting) is to keep the bile churning...

- Play it again Sam
- A few weeks ago I was pinged by Sam Williams, who was writing a story on Attention for Technology Review. We had a nice chat, I asked him to let me know when it was published, and I forgot about it. Then the story came out and I once again...

- In the moment at SDForum SearchSIG the other night when Seth Goldstein announced the funding grant of the AttentionTrust by the Omidyar Network, a spontaneous burst of applause erupted.

- Attention was the subject of the SDForum Search SIG tonight at AOL's Mountain View office. In fact, it's been the subject of attention and lively debate for the last few weeks, especially at the recent ETech to PC Forum conferences. In my post from ETech, "The amorphous attention economy,"...

- The only thing you can count on is change, the rest is S.H.I.T.
- Simple hacks of intellectual transactions, or S.H.I.T., is all the rage among marketers and gurus these days. As I've explained before, responding to, amongst other things, David Berlind's repeated complaints about C.R.A.P, S.H.I.T. that supposedly will eliminate the complexities and reciprocities of the existing economy, including C.R.A.P., are fantasies that...
