1. I believe this forum has become outdated. The big rage in social Internet sites today is thumbsup/thumbsdown features.
The site also needs a facial makeover and needs new features like video and personalization.
Digg.com is extremely successful with their format of digging an article and then replying directly to comments.
I believe if the zone would update their whole forum to more of a Web 2.0 standard, it would be able to take a step above other competitive sites...

How would the candidate be able to upgrade the site to stand above the rest?
