1. motivation Friday, May 7, 2010
"...in an information-rich world, the wealth of information means a dearth of something else: a scarcity of [ ... ] the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it" (Simon 1971, p. 40-41) Friday, May 7, 2010

wouldn’t it be great if computers could use all this information to do stuff for us? Friday, May 7, 2010
for example: • remind me to take out the trash when I get home on Tuesdays... • bug my friend who hasn’t replied to me in 2 days... • send me my grocery shopping list when I arrive at the grocery store • remind friends about an event I am going to attend • text me important emails when I am traveling ...how do we get there?
