Not for nothing, 4 minute books is totally in line with the stolen focus trend

@FourMinuteBooks 11 месяцев назад

Yes. The idea is that if a 4-minute sneak peek can grab you, perhaps you'll find the courage to pick up and tackle a whole book!

Thanks for watching!

Cutting into the video with an ad was kind of ironic. I get it. You have to pay the bills, but maybe, in a talk about stolen focus, don't interrupt our focus with an advertisement. Put it at the end, or beginning of the video.

@FourMinuteBooks 9 месяцев назад

Ha, you're right, I get the irony! We just enable ads by default, didn't think to change it for this one, but it makes sense. I think right now, we still have some control over where ads are placed, but that option is soon going away anyway. RU-vid will just do what it deems best, they announced. Then again, one could also take the perspective that the ad really drives the message home! "Oh my God, it's happening right now!" That happened to you and you realized it, so you're really internalizing the lessons. Thank you for watching and learning, we appreciate it!
