Nobody has time for boring anymore. We’d rather spend time on interesting.
It’s not sufficient to post just any Youtube video. You need to post a video that is interesting if you want to be garner attention in the 24 hours of video being uploaded every minute.
It’s not sufficient to post just any photo to Flickr anymore. Your photo needs to be interesting to be discovered in the millions of photos being added daily.
Interesting is the act of holding somebody’s attention. And, interesting is highly subjective (we all have different tastes right?)
Here are two things I find interesting:
1. Novelty – Is the concept really new? It’s rare to find new ideas so when I see one I really take note.
2. Craftsmanship - I’m not interested in spending time on lazy. I appreciate and reward care.
Please add your own thoughts in the comments. What do you find interesting?

After talking with you on Friday, I really understand what you mean about spending time on Interesting.
In that note, interesting is being able to communicate with people from different backgrounds and to learn to see things from different perspectives.

In that note, interesting is being able to communicate with people from different backgrounds and to be able to see things from other people's perspective, it just opens another world.
