The Attention Society
Tariq Krim
Abstract
We live in an Attention Society. Everyday, people are bombarded with ads, emails, videos, news stories, blog feeds, TV shows, text messages, podcasts, photo streams, and invites to join the latest social network or web service, each vying for our attention. Join Tariq Krim, founder and CEO of Netvibes, as he discusses how marketers can rise above the chatter by directly engaging audiences through individual personalization and why relevant widgets will replace traditional banner ads.
