I'd love a gaming site modelled after Slashdot (ww.slashdot.org).  The
great thing about Slashdot is that the boundary between the article
and the discussion is virtually nonexistent.  You learn just as much
by reading people's thoughts as you do the article itself.  Plus, you
have a wide variety of articles posted (well, they all have tech/geek
undertones, but you know what I mean).
