"extra" services as a way to financial sustainability

It is suggested that Wiki should make the site more interactive. The more interactive the site, the higher the rankings with the search engines. The higher the ranking with the search engines, the more one can charge for advertsiers. Visitors should be allowed to create/join communities, post to blogs, add videos and use other interactive tools. Wiki has the opportunity to become the online standard for doing research and interacting with other researchers.

Just a thought.

Hi Stan: You might check out the recommendation by the Community Health task force (specifically Recommendation 4, for social features. I think it speaks to much of what you are suggesting. I'm curious about your impressions of that.
