Improving TechRepublic’s Peer Directory

A group of us at TechRepublic is working on the next version of the site. One of our goals is to improve the peer directory.
https://www.techrepublic.com/peer/peer_browse.jhtml

For starters we want to revamp the search function and the information in the listings. What do you think? What would the directory have to offer for you to use it? What information on your IT colleagues is most valuable to you? Post a comment or send an e-mail to veronica.combs@techrepublic.com
Thanks for your help.
