Hello,
In the next couple of weeks I'll be opening my own web site. Is there anything people want in a web site?
I would like to see a web site like slashdot for Islam. See http://slashdot.org -- Be that an area where there are hot topics of recent interesest, and people can post feedback. Don't know of any such place at this time. (Although I also have my doubts about such a page, as I won't have the following needed to make it popular. Does such a place exist, and I've missed it? Wouldn't a big site better for such a forum?)
Other ideas I've kicked around:
1) A shopping mall that links to business sites. I'd verify that they are legit, and offer some a basic guarantee, for those afaid to make purcahses online. Include a search engine for specific items. (I'm shopping for various items right now, and I don't know who to trust.)
2) A simple link list for links to good sites with good information to increase link popularity. Just to help existing sites, as there are lots of good places out there already, but people may have a hard time finding them. Link popularity is everything these days for the search engines.
But, what I think isn't important. What do people want to see? There is lots of good stuff out there already. Don't want to duplicate effort.
In my not so humble opinion, I think everyone needs to read the Qur'an. Read it again. And again. And again. But the reality is that people "surf the net" looking for quick bites of info rather than solid info.
Look forward to your reply.
