Number of Connections or "Friends"
- Do people behave differently if they don't have a previous connection or history with the person they're interacting with?
- How do people behave if they have a limited number of set connections?
- Does anything change if connection count isn't visible to others?
Listening Period or Reflection Space
- The Listening Period was presented by Gordon Mangum at Center for Civic Media, and can be perused in further detail here
- A Reflection Space was posited as an IntrospectionBot which might prompt a mental stretch similar to desktop reminders to get up and move around.
Threading Model
- What is in the conversation?
- Who can participate?
- Who can view?
- How many nesting levels are there?
Privacy Control
- Who can see and interact with the discussion?
Scope Control
Set by the poster via the platform: who and how many people is the post advertised to?
Prioritization
Set by listener, as allowed by the platform
Randomization/Serendipity/Enforced Bubble Popping
How do we prevent people from complete homophily?
Latency Tolerance / Persistance
How long to messages last, and do you have to be present in order to see them?

Knowing that something has happened on a network can either help you re-engage or be so annoying you rage quit.

- Easy: Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr. Arguably also what adds to phases of outrage -- all passing on, no synthesis.
- Difficult: Instagram, LiveJournal. Require reference to the original, rather than passing on.
- Aggregate: RSS, occasionally with commenting function.
Message Size
- character limit
- image size or shape
Velocity of Content
- Possible to inject unicorns in order to appease system 1
- Possible to provide reframing for system 2
