New random quote feature
The site now has a nice little widget at the top left which displays a new random quote each time you refresh the page, or navigate to a different page. Each of these quotes is from a Russell Hoban work and is taken from existing quotes chosen by previous SA4QE participants. Both the source and contributor are listed beneath the quote. This feature is very much in keeping with the SA4QE ethos of happening upon a random quote in an unexpected context. Happy refreshing - be warned though, it's addictive!
