== 工作 ==
他对理解信息市场做出了重大贡献。他与合作者是第一个证明将信号和筛选机制应用于垃圾邮件过滤的人，从理论上说，可以为消费者创造比完美过滤器更多的价值（另见“注意力经济学”）。他与Geoffrey G. Parker教授共同撰写了关于“双边网络”的开创文献。这是一种对网络效应的改进，解释了公司如何通过对产品进行零定价以获取利润。 补贴定价和双边网络效应可能导致市场集中在少数公司手中。这些特性为公司的战略和反垄断法提供了基础。
他经常受邀作为会议主题演讲者，他还拥有保护通信隐私和防止垃圾邮件方法的专利。他最近的博客和研究可以在他的 平台经济和战略 date=20160503012019 页面上找到。他还是每年夏天在麻省理工学院媒体实验室举行的年度平台战略峰会的联合组织者。
