Potential Research Topics

Well, 10 potential research topics..
  • Online gaming
  • How the internet will (is) help revolutionize the future
  • How drug legalization could boost the economy
  • Auto-pilot cars
  • Genetic Engineering
  • What will the alternative fuel source of the future be?
  • Multi-touch sensory array computers
  • Bio-computing
  • Hover cars
  • Teleportation
  • Holographic projection
  • How much wood could a woodchuck chuck?
I think a lot of what i want to research has a lot to do with technology, whether it be the use of, or the development of it.

Online gaming is something i have been doing for years and am very knowledgeable about.
I believe that the internet is going to be something that plays a big part in everyone's life and the every day use of every day things.

Drug legalization is something that i have been a proponent of for years, even though i am not a user myself- the reason for this is due to the benefits that it could bring this country's economy as well as culture and possibly even its scientific community.

Autopilot will revolutionize the highways of the world to make things faster, safer and more efficient.

Genetic engineering is a subject that is very controversial and can serve both good and horrible purposes.

This is the pressing issue of today, what are we going to do when the oil runs out?

Multi-touch computers (ex. iPhone) will change the way we work and interact with computers.

Bio-computing, something that as far as i know is in concept alone- mere fantasy at best- is a very interesting subject: The human brain/eyes/nervous system are the fastest input computing processors, so what happens when you mesh the architecture of the human body, with the physical structure of a computer.

Hover cars: another thing that will revolutionize transport and highways- and why not even take it one step further, Teleportation?

Holographic projection is along the lines of Multi-touch computers and could change the way we interface with simple utilities- all the way to immersing ourselves in a digital world to fulfill our deepest fantasies or brave our darkest nightmares.

As for the woodchucks..

While I am utterly fascinated by woodchucks, the topic you named that I am most interested in personally is drug legalization. That topic is very rich for research, as there are some solid models around the world of differing degrees of drug legality.

Your other topics are good ones, too. You might consider which ones would be most feasible to research. For example, can you think of someone you might interview about holographic projection?
