Find a designer co-founder, right now :)
I'm interested in what problem this solves compared to say, Tumblr + WikiQuote? It isn't clear what the specific value proposition to a user is.
When I think of Friend Feed I think of importing all my "stuff" into one place, is Quote Feed supposed to import quotes from all over the place into one place?
- DanielBMarkham 17y agoMy original idea was to have a place like HN where, instead of reading titles, I could read the quick excerpts from the latest articles and news events all over the web. I also didn't want a simple voting system (insert long discussion about mob voting here) and instead went with a tagged learning system. Later on it occurred to me that social hooks and app-store integration might really help with growth.
- dimarco 17y agoHere's an idea: If people could wrap quotes in some tag like [qfeed]a good quote[/qfeed] in media outlets all over the internet, like Disqus comments for a particular blog or in reply to the quoted post on HN. And then a spider came along and pulled the [qfeed] bit and submitted it to quote-feed. It wouldn't work well for comment-less sites like wikipedia, but it would for "quick excerpts from the latest articles"
