  • METHODS FOR MERCHANDISING DIGITAL CONTENT
    Publication number: 20090299818
    Abstract: A method for merchandising digital content of an event includes measuring consumer attention level in the event and comparing the measured consumer attention level to a predetermined threshold. The method also includes predicting a time after the event at which the consumer attention level in the event will fall below a critical level and estimating the time needed for processing digital content of the event. Merchandising of digital content is initiated if the measured consumer attention level exceeds the predetermined threshold and the predicted time at which the consumer attention level will fall below a critical level is greater than the estimated content processing time.
