==Additions==
# Google-esque theme changes on holidays?
# Add a "most recently added comments" function to Factrak. It is impossible to figure out whether Factrak's even been updated at all this semester since you have to manually search by prof.
#* But only if it works better than the one on Blackboard, which doesn't show weird characters in the preview pane.
# WSO Hot Or Not?
# Add a Daily Advisor feed.
# The WSO Student Homepages link is buggy on both IE and Mozilla Firefox. It repeats people several hundred times.
# Get the menu and weather scripts working again.
#*Definitely should be done, but it is not as easy as one may think.#* There's no hope for the menu, but the weather is fixed.
# Fix the facebook so it'll search by parts of names rather than whole/beginning of names
#* Search by male/female
# Restrict RideBoard to one- or two-day listings so semester-long 'offers' don't clog the home page feed.
# Fix the Daily Messages feed.
# In the wiki login, put the "Log In" button on the same line as the dropdown menu, so that when you tab from one to the next you get to select WSO or Unix before you press the Login button, thereby not getting an error message.
Stuff that WSO definitely did:
# Restrict RideBoard to one- or two-day listings so semester-long 'offers' don't clog the home page feed.
#* Now it just shows the most recent posts.
# Added new 2005-06 profs to Factrak.
#*Also, if you want to help maintain the factrak databases, (it's really easy I promise, there's a really sweet admin interface) e-mail me at 06cks. E-mail me even if you aren't in WSO, and especially if you are an underclassman, someone has got to look after this once I'm gone.
# Make a preview feature on comment/blog/forum postings, to avoid the weird characters people get for cutting and pasting from Word.
#* Done for most everything.
# Add a "most recently added comments" function to Factrak. It is impossible to figure out whether Factrak's even been updated at all this semester since you have to manually search by prof.
#* Done! Check out http://wso.williams.edu/Factrak/home
