Attention makes money on internet? For ex. Facebook distracts over 600 millions people attention?

I get distracted by Facebook quite a lot! I have to turn it off!

Attention of FB brings a loss to my quality time. If ever I get on it, it is to clean up others silly acts on my wall. Only a good 10% use FB responsibly....for which I have to press the like to respect them.

I am proud to say that I won't be one of those 600 million soon...Yes it's a useless distraction! But while I phase myself out of FB, I still have to keep watch if anyone has placed a derogatory remark on my wall which may damage my professional brand. What's outrageous is that it can be anyone not necessarily from your friends list too.It could be a friend's friend.

:o( Happened a couple of times. Attention manipulation is unfortunately true whether we like it or not.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
