The interface of the human mind! How to maximize the streaming of data into that "site"? As with computers, speed and size are the constraints on the data flow. Additionally the data flow UPTIME is a contraint. This is where the "attention" factor comes from. Switching data streams from a "good" one (reading this column, and the talkbacks!) to a "bad" one (flashing popup ads got me again), lower the uptime of the "good" stream - which is undesirable/non-optimal.

This area sounds FACINATING, but in the end, its just another "soft" science spin-off (psychology,socialogy), and will suffer from lack of understanding/direction/data. In order to maximize the mind interface, you must understand the mind - and that human quest may never be resolved.
