It's actually a little bit of a myth that our attention spans have deteriorated. There's been quite a bit of studies on this, with some experiments on attention span that have been done on Americans and other countries since the 1960s, and there's been very little change. In fact, there's been some slight improvement in younger people, believe it or not.
