As for the future some integration with Twitter and more especially Facebook would be most welcome.  Facebook trawls websites that it finds links to - twice a day so I am led to believe potentially increasing traffic.

Also on-trend is being able to register/login on a website by 'Signing in through Google+, Facebook, Twitter' accounts - I am sure that would increase membership as everyone loves being able to sign-up to/for something at the click of a single button.
No, no, NO! We have enough whackjobs here as it is, do you really want to let every yahoo with a Facebook page in? As for "integration," in my experience that works out to "sitting and waiting for the page to finish loading while a choked-up Facebook CDN/Google Analytics server struggles to provide a 'Like' button graphic/who the hell even knows." That's the last thing we need.
