idea from @cmditch :

“
I was thinking of some web3 UX ideas regarding the screen where you wait for the tx to be mined…

waiting room entertainment”, some kind of interesting read - an article, a quote, a tweet - or some interesting video

Is this an issue that you're interested in solving? I have some ideas on how to implement "waiting room entertainment - either by pulling a random quote from Wikiquote or by choosing a quote from a pre-screened list of "interesting" quotes. I still am unsure what should be the "theme" of the quotes we want to display. Do we want them to be broadly focused on technological growth? Open source? Freelancing? Etc.?

EDIT:
The reason I'm leaning towards quotes instead of something more long-form like, say, an article, is that a quote is easier to create, and so we can always add more and more quotes in case people get bored by the existing waiting room entertainment.

In fact, if a quote is simple enough, we could use it as a basis for a 'template' --- for example, "If you do not [verb] the [noun], the [noun] will [verb] you." Having a computer generate quotes 'on the fly' would make maintenance of the "waiting room entertainment" much easier, with the cost, of course, of the computer-generated quotes potentially being less interesting than human-generated quotes.

yes still looking to do it

@cmditch may have other ideas... but i think that quotes about open source software or freelancing would be cool.

i'm all for a pre-screened list of interesting quotes (maybe stored in django, or just in the code base is fine to start...).

Cool! I'll start work on this project then, and if @cmditch make his suggestions, I will see if I can incorporate them.

Display random quote when a web3 transaction takes place
e85dc6d 
The hope is that this random quote will entertain users
while they are waiting for the transaction to be processed.
If the quotes themselves are too short, we could increase their
length, or display multiple quotes.

The hope is that this random quote will entertain users
while they are waiting for the transaction to be processed.

A random quote is selected and displayed to the user every 30
seconds until the transaction is fully processed. Future programmers
are free to add in more quotes or change the duration between each
quote.
