Can I Have More Than 8 seconds, Please

Another week; another startling study.

This is not a trick question -Who possesses greater focus, you or a goldfish?

A recent study calculates that the average human will likely ‘swim’ away from this Tuesday Tip in 8 seconds – and of course if you do, you miss the most important part of the story.

Yes, we now register an attention span of 8 seconds, down from approximately 12 seconds in 2000. Microsoft says that is a product of the digital age and a byproduct of the mobile internet.  A goldfish by the way, clocks in at 9 seconds.
