I just suggested this at FFL and think it would also be a good idea over here. Basically, each week, the staff (or some people appointed to pick people) picks a random regular member and makes a stickied thread somewhere for that person to post a little about themselves and for others to ask them questions. It's a good way for people who don't have time to chat or don't have IM programs to get to know their fellow members better. The thread would stay open for a week, then would be closed and archived.

Just an idea.
