There was already one attempt, successful I think, to propose a redesign
for some of the info. On Nielsen's site. The "Design Eye for the
Usability Guy" panel at SXSW. Check it out:

The scope of this project was narrower than the other "design eye"
overhauls, but informative nonetheless.

Maybe we could have a contest - provide a visual design to Jakob's

attendance or something. ;)
