This will double as a quotes database that is integrated into the search bar and Alfred software.

If possible, it will utilize dynamic hashtags which can generate shares on-the-fly.

Replicate Alfred's snippets behavior within app, such that the search box can understand certain key combinations as searches for snippets.

There could also be an Alfred integration into the app which dynamically links to the quote database in the app via JSON. When a certain keyword is searched on (like 'snip'), this would automatically show a form beneath the search box where chunking can be specified to any designated length; where formatting can be switched between HTML and various types of markdown; where continuation indicators can be included (like cont'd); where double quotes can be converted to single quotes; where dashes can be sanitized to be markdown-friendly; where signatures can be applied; perhaps also templates are available based upon the specified platform (physorg, cosmoquest, etc). It would of course be constructed to be mobile-friendly.

The snippets should be aggregated hierarchically. For example, 'snip' might suggest in or below the search box 'q - quote, l - link, lt - titled link, c - controversy card, ct - titled controversy card, cs - controversy card summary'. Once a person selects that, they can then enter keywords, like: 'snip q birke' would autocomplete as birkeland, and list out a bunch of quotes related to Kristian Birkeland.

These quotes would also appear in pertinent areas on the site, with an indication that they exist within the quote database. And there would also be a system in place for people to suggest their own, which are submitted to the moderators.
