IE Stack Exchange Site

I recently advocated anyone reading this blog check out OR-Exchange. Basically, the case is/was that if OR-Exchange didn't get to a certain amount of web traffic it would be shut down, as the people behind it (Stack Exchange) have a new model where they want to create nice, high volume question and answer sites on any topic people are willing to discuss.

I've been thinking about it, and it's my opinion that OR-Exchange may be a bit too niche to be able to attract enough users to keep alive.

So I am proposing we create a Stack Exchange site on Industrial Engineering/Continuous Improvement/Systems Analysis, whatever you want to call it.

If you're interested in seeing this site come to fruition, visit:


and follow the site, and if we can get enough followers and example questions, we can move on and get a centralized, modern community started for discussing anything IE/OR/CI.
