Listography is a new method of journal writing for those of us who suffer from the common affliction known as ‘extreme attention diminishment.’ Instead of recording charming and colorful prose of your day-to-day experiences in a diary, list-writing condenses the exercise into a more precise and to-the-point system.
The list-writing pastime can been practiced either online or in Listography’s enchanting books, which come with pre-titled chapters such as, "Why you wouldn’t date yourself," "Things you’d want in your wedding or commitment vows," and "things that turn you on."
The Listography website is part social networking and part time capsule. You develop a page with lists that tell others about you without divulging too many details.
Eventually a simple book of lists becomes an autobiography of your life, easily read by others who also endure the reduced attention span phenomena.
