We've got a pretty decent link sharing app, but there's a lot more we could do with it. Here are some ideas for building out on your own:

Voting! Allow voting on posts and comment, and sort both according to their votes. There's a popular gem for adding this functionality: acts_as_votable. And hey, it even plays nice with acts_as_commentable_with_threading. Be sure to uncomment the line acts_as_votable in lib/comment.rb.
User reputation! Add a karma system. Once again, there's a gem for that: activerecord-reputation-system.
Sharing! Share posts on Twitter, Facebook, etc.

Happy coding!
