Quote Contests
(a new feature idea)
I was thinking about adding a new feature to make Witty a little more fun. I thought it might be entertaining to have contests created by users to come up with the funniest joke, most inspirational story, coolest format or whatever. To enter each contest you'd tag your quote with a specific tag for that contest (like contestlamepun or contestcoolformat) and then people could browse by that tag and vote for their favorites by faving the quotes. Just an idea. Sound like fun?
