Using a fast and intuitive search function with a variety of user options, http://www.QuotesDaddy.com , the mother of all quotation websites is finally online, and offers access to over 1.5 million quotations. Target users include bloggers, lecturers, speakers, writers, comedians and quotes enthusiasts. Not being required to access the site, the membership is free. Members do, however, participate in a variety of inter-active experiences and the ability to find and share quotes.
Maya Elhalal, the site founder, explained:
"The idea, is to create what amounts to a playground for people who love quotes, and who use them in their work and personal interactions. We've made sure the technology doesn't distract or intimidate, meaning there is no learning curve. We've designed it to be a resource you'll want to use frequently." Quotes Daddy, says Elhalal, herself a lecturer and blogger, is the first online quotations resource to offer customizable quotes widgets and favorites lists to help users organize and tag their favorites. "Other sites provide a searchable library of quotes," continues Elhalal, "but this is a whole new dimension of accessibility, applicability and flexibility for users."
The Quotes Daddy user experience, according to Elhalal, expands beyond simply looking up and using a quote. She added:
"Our users will have the opportunity to contribute their own quotes, with ratings and feedback from fellow members." Allowing members to customize and enrich their correspondence, articles and blogs, there will also be competitive challenges and the availability of personalized animated online greeting cards using favorite quotes.
