I think the Pinteresque tiling home page might work if the information density were to be increased by quite a lot. What bothers me most is how you can only see the name of the board and the two/three most recent comments. What does that provide in terms of information? Not much IMO. The forum itself just seems like the same 90's forum from yesteryear with a new glossy coating. Once you've gotten used to the Reddit/HN way to manage content you simply can't go back to that.
