blogs | AttentionTrust.org: "AttentionTrust has a three-part mission:
1) Educate people about the existence of “attention data,” i.e. metadata that reflects what we pay attention to (and what we ignore) and its potential value as a resource.
2) Empower people to exert greater control over their own attention data–our first initiative in this area is the recent release of the AttentionTrust Extension, an “attention recorder” in the form of a Firefox extension that allows users to record and share aspects of their clickstream and browsing history.
And 3) Build a community of individuals and organizations that agree to respect users’ rights to own, manage and exchange their attention data in a transparent environment that allows users to decide who has access to their data and how it’s used."
