Figuring out if you're boring someone is a non-trivial task for some people. This is especially true for people who have a hard time reading social cues, such as people with autism.

- PsychologyToday has a nice writeup about eight cues that indicate you're boring someone.
- Wired has an article about a robot that read body language.
- There's also The Definitive Book of Body Language by Barbara and Allen Pease which is more like a reference guide.
- Slashdot brings us news of a company that hires people with autism to test software. (I remember reading about a similar company, but cannot find the reference right now.) The claim is that they are good at predictable, repetitive tasks and are very attentive to details.
What do you do when you realize you're boring someone?
