I didn`t do a very exhaustive search to see where these suggestions should go, but as a big fan of the StartUpNation podcast I thought I would try and give something back: Some suggestion for the website.
I really like the website, but I had a few ideas that might be interesting:
1- Allow people to bookmark forum threads and show those bookmarks in their profile.
Why: Forums are nice, but digging through them to get the gems of information can be daunting at best. Allowing experienced SUN`ers to mark forum threads would be very valuable. It is a similar concept to digg.com, where the users can elevate the status of story by voting on it.
2- Allow more interactivity with the 10 steps to open a business. It is one thing to give us a drop down to say the state of our start-up, but I think it would be more interesting to allow us to show the world (if we want) where we are in those steps.
Most of the those steps offer amazing resources to help you on your way, but just think how powerful it would be for the community if we could re-upload those resources and share what we have done. With how cheap storage space is nowadays and how easy it is to upload documents it could be an easy way to make a read difference.
Well keep up the great work and thank you for StartUpNation.
