DZone is about community, however, and I feel we should be willing to go to great lengths to make the experience better for the active participants. Here's some of the kind of stuff I was thinking:
- Easy access to dynamic graphs of the activity of your own links, or links you want to watch
- Simplified voting
- Integrated private message management
- Alerts for links on your preferred keywords/tags
- Integrated Jabber functionality (for those who want it)
- Simplified image uploading and posting
- Integrated viewer for streaming media (a big part of 2008 for us)
Heck, I know I would use this if it was available!

That's it! Let's be creative again! In the few tens of minutes since my answer, I had a few ideas.
Now the question is what do we have in terms of externalized API's on DZone?
