How about a new field: "Ask me about ..."
I envisage a new field on everyone's record that lets us publish just a few words (literally) hinting at things that we are happy to talk about on-air - our other interests, achievements, challenges or whatever. If this info was made available through the XML interface to logging programs such as Logger32, it could appear on our screens during QSOs and encourage us to get past the pure rubber-stamp QSOs that are the norm these days - when appropriate anyway (obviously not in a pileup situation or when the path is marginal).

it's already supported by HamQTH API: http://hamqth.com/developers.php described in "How do I get callsign bio?" section. Now it's only up to logging program authors to add support into their apps.
A few months a go I removed eQSL.cc search form. Did it help?

Am I going blind? I can't see the field "Ask me about ..." or anything similar. I can see the normal bio info - callsign, location, name, locator etc.- and all that comes across into Logger32 just fine, but I'm asking for an additional/new field 'Ask me about:" where we can enter a few words such as "FOC, HamQTH" or whatever we are happy to talk about on air.

PS Yes thanks, I no longer see the eQSL.cc search when I access HamQTH.com
