Provide a list of forum sites
The vast variety of places where one can seek help or offer ideas and feedback is very confusing.
For example, there is no clear relationship between the "social" forums at http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/categories and [Community] Microsoft Answers at http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us; and many other "communities" are listed on http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/Page/forums.
Please provide ONE place with a comprehensive list [that includes summaries of the purpose of each site], and encourage those responsible for individual sites to display a link to the list [eg replacing the links in documents like the Announcement at http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/suggest/threads].

Extend TN Activity display
Contributors cannot sustain without management buy-in, which is obtained by showing impact for effort. Currently, the integrated profile shows only the last N entries in the activity stream. The activity stream should function as a "log" that shows *ALL* activities, so that contributors can pull metrics and analyze/report results.
