Not to add more to the workload, but maybe we could a have weekly "spotlight" on users who contribute/share/comment the most for a designated time, or use it for new users as a way to quickly find topics and users. The problem is it might create "celebrity users" which might make it harder for those lower on the totem pole to gain followers (but that isn't the point of hubski, is it?).
Captain_Ozone, feel free to PM me any ideas you have that could help make this happen. I like the idea of spotlighting users that are making positive contributions to the site. Right now one sticks out imo: http://hubski.com/pub?id=54486 and http://hubski.com/pub?id=55119 -These are the kinds of posts that interest me and use the site in a unique way. That said there are likely many, many more comments and posts from new and old Hubskiers alike that we could highlight. I think every week may be a bit much to bite off but perhaps every month having a "best of". Let me know your thoughts. Also, if you are interested in participating in the #tngpodcast, let me know. We are also going to be doing a Hubski video cast with the help of steve here shortly.
It's an interesting idea. Just point thenewgreen to it. His #tngpodcast does this to a degree already.
