What I am trying to advocate for (unsucessfully) is a stripped down version of the UI so that brand new folks who know nothing about superuser can still ask a question quickly. | |

| Jul 16, 2009 at 12:59 | comment | added | Jonathan Sampson | @Rob, The front page isn't suppose to be relevant to your particular problem. Those are other people's problems. Let your family know that they must ask their own personal question to get items relevant to their personal issues. | |
| Jul 16, 2009 at 12:58 | comment | added | Jonathan Sampson | Theoretically, the "must have" question will die out, but it may not be as soon as we hope. Shortly after "Must Have Games" went out, "Must Have Windows Games", "Must Have Mac Games", "Must Have Wii Games", "Must Have FOSS Games" all went out. That list could theoretically extend on for a long time. | |
| Jul 16, 2009 at 12:58 | comment | added | Rob Allen | I agree that the quality of question and answer will improve. My concern is for users who arrive at the site to ask a question but get overwhelmed by a long list of items irrelevant to their task. | |
