the future of planner reads is in your hands

I’m meeting with my developer pal later this week to talk about the next phase of PlannerReads.com and I need your two cents.
The site’s been live for about a month and a half and we’ve made steady strides growing traffic and contributors (71 in all!)… a big thank you to everyone that has shared the site.
We still have a good deal of work ahead to make the site a truly valuable resource for the planning and strategy community, but we’re committed to seeing this through.
Directions we’re considering (please jump in the comments and toss your support to ideas you want to see pursued)
– More in-depth profiles for the contributors of the site and more information on where visitors can find you across the web
– A rating/leaderboard system for contributors, who is sharing the best content first (best as in shared by other users)?
– A rating/leaderboard system for the sources linked to and shared; what sites are hot for our community this month?
– Adding more interaction to the site: can visitors vote up posts/contributors/sources?
– Adding other sources of sharing; should tweets count towards posts/sources?
– Questions/Polls (is there a weekly question we can pose to all visitors that would be valuable for the community?)
– Editorial, would you like to see more interviews with planners and discussions on the future of the industry?
– Portability, would you like a better conditioned RSS feed or an email newsletter with a weekly round-up of top posts?
Alright, let me know what I missed and what you think in the comments!
*quick tip: use the search on plannerreads.com to find articles about topics you’re interested in, like mobile, for instance.

I’m always searching for a jargon-free sentence to use when someone asks, “what do you do?” This is the best I’ve come up with so far. What do you think?
