Board member locater?
Now this is something I've seen done before, so I know the code is out there...
Text only - You give it parameters (maximum search distance, search a particular state, etc.,) and it spits out the board members meeting that criteria. Since it would be ONLY be pulling information from the public profile, only people wanting to be listed, would be listed.
Graphic - Same as above, but would show icons (would be really trick to show board member's avatar) on display map of state/region/country/continent.
How bout it, board wizards? Could this be designed as a 'plug-in'? That way you could maybe market it and sell it to other users of this bb software?

Check out the ZRX registry. Can search several different ways or just click on a state/country. Very convenient.
