Streaming attention

  • Article

Universal Gadget:

"I can imagine using my OPML and other feeds to display things I’m interested in, such as tailored Amazon products I might want to buy that are on sale and new content on the sites I like to get my information from.I can imagine, in the near future, LCD screens scattered around a house, streaming attention information to a person based on their current physical location (if I’m in the kitchen I might want to see feeds related to food and current events, while in my living room, my wall is attending me productivity and work related items."

    Tim, thanks for the comments. Yes, I'm with you - there is plenty of potential in opml. My thoughts on the Attention / OPML here.

    Good evening Alex and everyone. Thanks very much for using a snippet of our blog on your own. Great to get noticed!

    Tim, just in reference to your comment. As my friend and partner mentioned in his post, Touchstone is actually about a broader definition of attention and content.

    The goal with our project is to create a gadget that streams in content from many sources (including RSS of course) and takes into account many types of attention data to give you information you care about while you're being productive.

    This post that Alex paraphrased was actually Ashley's musings about a future world based on our gadget where part of the attention information included the user's physical location, and extrapolated their most likely priorities based on being in that room and previous rules they had set.

    It's great to start getting feedback on our little project.

    Just in case anyone is interested, we will soon be at public alpha - anyone interested in being one of the elite few to see it sooner-rather-then-later feel free to let us know.

    We're extremely interested in user feedback about TouchStone. Our primary goal from thestart, is to shift attention data rules onto the client, and while this isnt typically very web 2.0 of us, we feel that the person BEST suited to managing your attention data is, well, you!

    Very excited to be on Alex's blog, and we hope to hear from all of you ASAP.
