[QOTW] New Website!

QOTW qotw at qotw.net

Well, it’s finally happened.

After almost 13 years, Quote of the Week has a shiny new website! The 
new website makes it easier than ever to vote, submit quotes, and view 
the archives. You can also see last week’s top quotes on the homepage. 
And did I mention it’s shiny? You can access the new website right now 
by simply going to qotw.net.

The reason for this change should seem pretty obvious. Reilly put a lot 
of work into the site years ago, but it was starting to show its age. 
Hopefully, QOTW.net version 3 lasts us for many years to come. Thanks to 
Alex Ding for developing the new website completely unprompted (really).

As Chris said earlier, to submit quotes, vote, and sign up for the new 
mailing list, you will need an account on the new website. If you have a 
working Commonwealth email account, you can sign up using that. If you 
are an alum and you would like to vote and submit, please email 
cws.qotw at gmail.com to request an account.

To vote, simply click the “Vote” button and order all the quotes from 
favorite to least favorite. As for submitting quotes, the process is no 
longer anonymous to prevent spam, but only Quotemasters can see who 
submitted which quotes. Feel free to email cws.qotw at gmail.com with any 
other questions you have about the new website.

In case you still need it for whatever reason, version 2 of the website 
is still available at https://www.qotw.net/index.php. However, most of 
the information that’s relevant to this new era of QOTW has been moved 
over to the new website.
