Nudging Mechanisms for Technology Adoption
2009We study the adoption dynamics of two competing technologies and the efficacy of viral pricing strategies for driving adoption. Our model considers two incompatible technologies of differing quality and a market in which user valuations are heterogeneous and subject to network effects. We provide partial characterization results about the structure and
