Give me your input please!

Alright, I really want this site to be useful for people. I enjoy blogging and writing articles, but if people do not find them useful, I'll keep them to myself... no I won't I like to share, even if you don't want me to!

Anyway, I would like to know what people will find useful in this site. I have a couple of ideas for things that I want to work on. What do you think of my ideas? Do you have any ideas of your own that you would like to share with me? As a webmaster, it is important to me that my "customers" (that's you) are happy with the product they are getting. Any input I can get from you will allow me to make a better product for you.

My ideas:

Plant index: I am planning on making a detailed index of plants. This will include planting details, descriptions, and will allow you to comment and add pictures and whatnot. I would probably start with one group of plants (gourds for instance) and expand to other related to it (squash, cucumbers, and the rest of the family) and then other families (corn and other grasses, legumes, sunflowers, etc).

Sustainable Tips: This list of tips would give ideas for how to make your life more sustainable. The tips will rotate on the front page.

Carbon Footprint Tracking: There is some software I can get that would allow us to track our carbon footprint. It is a lot of work to properly track your footprint, and I'm not sure I'd follow through with tracking it regularly. I'm not sure how well others would either. Let me know if you would like to see this tool, and I'll include it. I'll first have to understand how it works though. I've done very little play with it, so I'd have to spend some time learning.

Discussion Forums: I can easily add discussion to this site, but as it stands now, I don't feel there are enough visitors to warrant the overhead. I don't get many comments on the blog entries which makes me wonder if a discussion form would be used.

Please use the comment function on this page, or if you want to keep your comment private, use the contact form. But either way, PLEASE give me your feedback!
