LW1370 - Collapsing Attention Spans

I worry about the future of the still image. 100 years ago, the primary method to view photographs was to see original prints. 50 years ago we primarily saw photographs in books. Today we primarily see photographs on a fleeting web page. Attention spans would seem to be collapsing dramatically. Should we accept this as inevitable, or push to extend viewing times to something more historic?
