One thing that surprised me when I got on launchpad, was the lack of
location data. Most of the other sites I've worked with have allowed
people to search for users close to their location, so they can tap into
each other for knowledge or resources. I think it would be a great
advantage for a LoCo team leader to be able to see everyone within 50
miles of them who is a registered user.

For example, the person who is currently listed as the closest LoCo team
contact to me really isn't active. I've sent emails with no response,
there is no information in the Wiki, how do I find other users in the
area? If I could look up everyone in Launchpad within a certain
distance, I could easily make other contacts.

This really wouldn't be too hard to add to the site, and could be set up
as an opt-in feature for people with privacy concerns.
