I know there is the 'group members' feature for businesses to be able to sign up a pool of employees, but what if you are just learning with a buddy? It would be nice to be able to see each-others progress, and maybe even be able to communicate on some level through treehouse. It would be awesome to make some kind of competition between friends, like who was able to complete the most tasks in a given week or month, or see some kind of dashboard of what your friends are learning. Not sure if there could be a way to work something like that in, without defeating the extra value of the group business account?

This is an awesome idea. Another approach here would be for treehouse to expose an API and allow us to write our own competitions. It would also allow us to learn something by working with an API and putting our skills to the test ;-)

It would be great if you could see the forum activity of your Treehouse friends.

There are some Treehouse users I'd like to follow on the forums.
