Can I Have Your Attention Please?

I think something relevant across all classes, digital literacy, and all fields is attention. No matter where you look, keeping your attention is key to success. If your studying, you have to focus - keep your attention. If you're making a tiktok video, you have to keep your viewers attention in mind - make sure it's not too long and drull that they move on without completing the video. However, what comes into question is how current media, sources of entertainment, and people's attention retention is being altered. A common trend thats remained relevant for last two years is under your "main content" (the content with information/audio) you include a clip of a benign mobile app to hold viewers attention.

This became a staple practice for content-creators when uploading smaller clips of their podcast, small edits, and it only spread more widely when it was used as means to upload clips of movies and tv-shows to avoid copyright and automated piracy software. This phenomenon however has gartered attention regarding how effective this idea is. How can it be implemented else where to keep attention and so forth. How can this appliation be used within an academic setting? Within the gaming community and streaming how can this be used to boost sales and viewership? These are the questions I plan on answering.
