So I was thinking earlier today. I wasn't really thinking about Minecraft but I was thinking about volcanoes in Science class (at school). And then it hit me, we need a way to know where strongholds are right? Notch had mentioned volcanoes right??? See what I'm getting at? Have volcanoes on the surface that signify an area with a stronghold!

Eh, I'd rather have the two not be next to each other everytime. Plus there is wood in strongholds and i bet a lot of the maps would mess up and make the volcanoes leak lava in the stronghold. And the ender eye is already gonna lead you to a stronghold.
Second, eyes of ender can be difficult to get since Nether Strongholds are rare and often far away from your portal. I can see the point of lava leaking into the strongholds but the only place with wood in the strongholds I've found is the library. In addition, eyes of ender will disappear sometimes and that could make things very difficult if you don't have an easy way to get them.

That is kind of the point of the eye of ender. And the glass tower makes it easy to find right now, and notch is removing that, so he wouldn't add volcanoes to it.
My process:
mine,build shelter, dig 2 deep hole.push chicken in.expand chicken farm,get bucket for lava and water.make mold for portal and create it,collect feathers and flint for arrows,enter the nether and go straight in one direction and de-elevation by digging down stairs in large netherrack chunks,find a nether ruin and get a rod, make a sword from mined materials and kill an enderman
ta-dahhh! That took me about 2 or so hours to find a stronghold...
What'cha think? Feed back please?
