Is it just me, or is it impossible to talk to technology entrepreneurs without mentioning user engagement and behavior? Im a behavioral psychologist, so that might be why I keep having conversations about engagement, but I dont think thats the only reason. I think its because entrepreneurs have realized that behavior change and engagement is critical to technology development (and to everything else in our lives). Whether were trying to get people to download or keep playing our fantasy sports applications, convince ourselves to avoid that extra scoop of ice cream, or get our neighbor to stop hitting her snooze button at 5:00, 5:10, and 5:20 a.m., we understand how difficult it can be to engage people and change behavior.
