Staircase vs Escalator


Watch what a group of engineers did, using fun to get people to use a long staircase with a moving escalator right next to it...at first no one took the stairs, almost 97% of the people took the escalator. Notice how engineers changed how people reacted to climbing a long stair case as first choice...66% more people took the stairs.

Neat trick! For the next study, maybe Google Blogger could see if more people would use their service if they actually showed the pictures of people who follow blogs!
