OpenStudy Suggestion.
The suggestion I have is that there should be a 'quote of the day' placed right on the log in screen.
Why? Because if a user who logs in and sees this, it would not only give them a bit of knowledge, it would probably give them a sense of inspiration as well.
Yeah, and there should be something else there to inspire people to join OS.
Something like: Have so much homework, and you can't figure it all out? Make a free OpenStudy account and we will help you get that homework done!
@AnswerMyQuestions That's just like another slogan, i'm talking about something users can read to influence them to learn.
Something like this: "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."
That above, was by Nelson Mandela.
Nelson Mandela? >.>
Yeah, but I'm talking about writing something at the top of the page like what I said to encourage people to join OS.
@AnswerMyQuestions If you don't know who he is, feel free to look him up. Also, what you said probably is a good idea, but that's not what i'm discussing. Like i said above, that's just another slogan.
I know who Nelson Mandela is, I just don't like him.
It was just an example of a quote. If this is innovated, any positive quote can be used.
If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person. It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you. The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit. does this work?
Like i said, any positive quote can be used. Even great OS users quotes. But now isn't the time to give them, now is the time to see if this 'quote of the day' can be innovated.
...
Yeah, you have to find out if the moderators approve this suggestion, then you can suggest quotes.
I would love to have a quote of the day...that should put someone like you or someone who comes on a lot in charge of it so you can change it everyday
@perl can one of us have this approved?
@sammiboox
Most likely a mod would be put in charge of it. If not, whoever they put (if this is done), I hope they keep the quotes education-related.
Yes. Although I think you would be a better keeper of it then a mod.
I would love to do it, but the 'higher authorities' will get the final say.
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning. I love this one
Great idea but @Preetha would first have to let it pass.
They are doing an entire landing page redesign anyways @Night-Watcher http://openstudy.com/users/preetha#/updates/5464d5d2e4b01f8fb007165b
I actually definitely agree=) Nightwatcher!!:) I don't think its a great idea but a fantastically, fabulously amazing idea! Even though this quote isn't really that educational I still like it=) "Don’t start your day with the broken pieces of yesterday. Every Morning we wake up is the first day of the rest of our life."
and there seems to be daily educational quotes on the OpenStudy Twitter
@YanaSidlinskiy Glad you like it! Also, quotes like that could apply :) @sleepyhead314 I looked into that link, and it seems like they have some very interesting things planned.
