In an information-rich world, the wealth of information means a dearth of something else: a scarcity of whatever information consumes. What information consumes is rather obvious: it consumes 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.”
Herbert A. Simon (1971)
