I agree with all of the points above, however you need to add a splash of "humanism" in content that gives the "behind the scenes" or even a bit of fun and entertainment. I would avoid becoming a "google" of information. While that is valuable, it typically turns into a place where people may go, but not engage. And as other social sites adopt an "EdgeRank" type algorithm to weed out what content people see, decreasing engagement will in turn actually hide content as time goes on. There is a balance that needs to be assessed. As well, eve when giving information, it is typically a good idea to ask questions! "What is your take on this topic?" Or "what are your experiences?". This sparks conversation. And conversation/engagement is what helps propel content to new audiences.
