Mike Follett reflects on what the new book from the foremost thinker on the Attention Economy can teach us about advertising – and life.

Route Research’s new OOH currency points the way for all other media to follow.

Sainsbury’s pips Asda, Boots and Aldi to be top of the Christmas tree according to TVision’s UK-based Attention Panel.
