Want Me To Read Your Email? Pay Me. - 1 views

  • A new service called Attention Auction isn’t going to fix that problem, either. But it’s a start. People bid to get you to read their email. You find someone you want to contact, see how many other messages are in their inbox and how they are priced, and then bid for your message to get in the line. If your message isn’t read you can increase the price and push it higher in the queue. As a recipient you’ll see messages sorted from the highest price to the lowest. Open the message and get paid.

    People can actually do this. Looks like a pot of trouble to me.

    Isn't this idea soooo 2009? ;) Actually, I quite agree and am very excited about the possibilities. Bent opened this idea to me last year when we were talking about the PNRP protocol already available on Windows machines. I've another friend doing similar things with XMPP and JavaScript (no, not Wave). This is indeed exciting. I wonder how many will jump directly to this architecture as their new hammer? I imagine a lot. It will probably overcomplicate things for a little while. I would really rather see more use of DDD/CQRS (http://groups.google.com/group/dddcqrs). It seems to have a bit more utility in the HTML5 landscape. Time will tell. Cheers! Ryan

Rough Type: Nicholas Carr's Blog: Situational overload and ambient overload - 1 views

www.roughtype.com/...situational_ove.php +ambientoverload
shared by Kurt Laitner on 09 Mar 11 - No Cached
  • Ambient overload doesn't involve needles in haystacks. It involves haystack-sized piles of needles. We experience ambient overload when we're surrounded by so much information that is of immediate interest to us that we feel overwhelmed by the neverending pressure of trying to keep up with it all.
  • The cause of situational overload is too much noise. The cause of ambient overload is too much signal.

  • If we recognize a role of author, outside that of the user’s curation activity we can also enable the rating of people and objects that don’t belong to users. This would allow researchers who are not users to build up reputation within the system

      this is a really interesting twist, sort of like profile sites that allow you to 'claim' your profile - I also find the blending of poster with author annoying on twine and other socnets - it should be very clear who plays what role, this also reinforces that I would like to modulate the 'post' action to distinguish between things I just want to look at later and am filing, and things I've spent some time with and are recommending, as well as numerous other intentions that are currently bundled up in 'post' or 'share' buttons - this would also contribute to filtering granularity, as I could read everything that one of my trusted advisors had recommended, ignoring things they were merely 'collecting'
  • Finally there is the question of interacting with this content and filtering it through the rating systems that have been created. The UI issues for this are formidable but there is a need to enable different views. A streaming view, and more static views of content a user has collected over long periods, as well as search.

    Interesting. I think this distinction between intrinsic and extrinsic motivators has applications not just to business, but also in things like teaching and social network design (how to motivate users to contribute). -
  • Jack Logan on 03 Feb 10
     
    Extrinsic motivation was the way our group was formed - doing something bigger than ourselves, doing it without reward, doing it for the common good, finding a better way to do something that is important.
  • François Dongier on 03 Feb 10
     
    Yes... Extrinsic motivation is all over the place, fortunately.

    "A few weeks ago, I noticed a contest on Stowe Boyd's site to receive a free entry to the Social Business Edge conference coming up in April in NYC, and a chance to share the idea on stage. I just found out my entry is one of four that was selected. I'm copying it here, but I'd love to build it out with you: How can the power and scope of social networks, combined with a human capital inventory, be used to facilitate shared creation and innovation? It wasn't that long ago that society was a byproduct of an industrial era, characterized by assembly lines, processes, and efficiency. Like the machines they operated, people were not expected to think, but to conform and become a cog - a replicable, interchangeable part of a machine. The problem is, humans weren't designed for mechanization. We were designed to create."

Action Streams: A New Idea for Social Networks - 1 views

www.readwriteweb.com/...w_idea_for_social_networks.php action streams
shared by François Dongier on 20 Mar 10 - Cached
  • Earlier this month social software designer Adrian Chan offered up a proposal for what he called Action Streams.
  • Action streams would not only share status/activity update meta-data but also permit updates to function as actions. For example, an invitation update posted in twitter could be accepted in Buzz. The vision for action streams thus involves a distributed and decentralized ecosystem of coupled action posts, rendered by third party stream clients and within participating social networks.
  • The Activity Streams discussion is participated in by engineers from companies like Google, Facebook, Nokia, Yahoo and others. Chris Messina, who joined Google in January, is one of the key voices, and semantic web builder Monica Keller, who left MySpace for Facebook last month, appears to be taking an even more active role in the effort than she had before.
