How about designing software that optimizes daydreaming?
My work cycle involves writing code, checking email, and doing research online. Rarely does my mind wonder to other things when I'm coding. I figure this is a result of at least two factors: (1) Coding is more mentally engaging than email and research. (2) My IDE doesn't have any interesting links. The only things I can click on to distract me from a programming task are files containing other programming tasks.
Anyone have a lot of free time on their hands? I'd like to place an order for a Firefox add-on that takes banner ads and gratuitous "related article" links, and replaces them with excerpts from my coding to-do list that link back to Eclipse...
