Some of my ideas were the very unoriginal sharing ideas, and reformatting the contentto make it a better read.
Some of the ideas had more merit to them like trying to help people gain a more well-rounded knowledge of topics, and studying trends across similar websites to helpcreate a bigger picture of whats going on in the world.
