True, to a point, but there are significant areas where we're lacking, and I think (in the motorcycle community, at least) we're the online site with a sizable enough motorcycling user base to pull it off: Things such as user groups where people of like interest and/or nearby geographical locations can hang out. We used to do this with our old BBSes and majordomo mailing lists, but the ability to control, rather to exactly identify and punt jerks, just wasn't there. As the volume of use got huge, so did the slight percentage of dodoheads that were making life aggravating for everyone else. At that time, it required a lot of work by us individually, now, however, it's more acceptable to have a task manager to deal with it, usually that's the person that set up the group/forum/calendar/ride and so on, and people can see the dis-association between MO per se and the task manager. Legally, they're mostly separate now, too, or at least much moreso than before -- Prodigy's mid-1990s loss of a couple million over a post in a user-moderated forum had a lot to do with us pulling forums/groups, but the legal atmosphere has changed.
We want people to be able to build their home pages around the bikes they own so we can auto-rank them (by hits, and by user ratings) in features when we review the new model of what they have. People seem to dig our features, but this is something that is asked for a lot, and we haven't delivered. A centralized source for professional reviews coupled with owners' experience is the idea.
In short, the one-to-many publishing of features will continue, but we need to meld into the overall MO real-world, real people that can interact and meet on a one-to-one basis.
Funny thing is, when we last spoke to (big media monitoring firm), we were the "stickiest" automotive site on the 'Net, but we're still not happy with it.
