Even as the bewildered common man and the ( uncommon ) serious journalist are trying hard to make some sense of the current going-on , rather the pre-election goings and comings and twists and twirls , the media itself has come in for some attention on two counts . In our recent poll , 50 percent of the respondents said they had paid at least some attention during the past week to the presidential campaign , up from 28 percent during the comparable week of the 2000 campaign . This project seeks to experimentally evaluate the attention demands of various voice interface characteristics , such as message length , message understandability , and menu length . This talk will discuss the technologies and standardization effort ( s ) for instant messaging and presence , with some attention on their role as exemplars of a public engineering effort , and a critical view of the probable outcome . Little or no attention has been given to the problems of pastoralism , which is an important way of life in the Near East and North Africa , or to cropping patterns in regions where shifting cultivation is a common practice . Less than 1 % of global health impact is occurring outdoors in urban areas of developed countries where almost all attention has been directed .
