I created Feldot to enable the exact opposite behavior, pushing the user to explore new domains. Instead of a link aggregator like HN or Reddit, it's a domain aggregator, pointing to an entire website.

Because it's tough to find new sites, I also created a tool to help find new sites, Feldot Explore[1]. It's not just a list of domain names; each one was scanned to verify that a web server is running on it, and some basic scans were done to remove a majority(but not all) parked domains. The list was checked a year ago so it's not exactly fresh, but I think the signal-to-noise ratio is still good enough.

I posted this a year ago and it gained no traction, which isn't surprising considering its appearance. I revamped its UI, though it's still very much a work in progress. Any feedback, positive or negative, is very appreciated!

Primarily authentication, authorization, and accounting[0]. Setting up a new user account on every single computer that an employee may at some point sit at gets very expensive. Many businesses (if not immediately then eventually) have security concerns that require Administrators have the ability to immediately lock users out of the system or be able to audit recent activity. AD/LDAP facilitates this. It can also automate standard settings like network drives, screen lockout settings, homepages, and all sorts of other settings.

Standardization of processes and training can reduce training time considerably. For industries with high turnover, this can make a difference. You've gotta remember, not everyone is a knowledge worker. Tons of people are more like cogs in the machine of the company, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

User testing isn't flawless, and is what got us the ribbon in Microsoft Office for example, an incredibly unintuitive interface.
