Great point on the lack of a social component for the attention data being captured by users of our Firefox extension (versions for other browsers are on the way). But that social component is in the pipeline as developers of "attention services" find ways to actually do something useful (or valuable, or just kewl) with this data. The "ACME Attention Service" that you can currently opt to share data with is just a proof-of-concept, and not an actual service. But you can see the tangible results at http://acmeattentionservice.com/query. Interesting stuff, at the very least. Thanks for the pointer--looking forward to hearing more from you.
