I've been working on this with a couple friends for the past few years. We took every videotaped presidential debate in history, synced the transcripts with the video, and made it all searchable. If you highlight a snippet of a debate and post it to social media, we generate a fancy image of the text as the thumbnail. Once somebody clicks your post, they can see the full context it was taken from.<p>Our original idea was (and is) to something like medium or substack, except the authors can only link to finite set of facts. It's more interesting read someone you disagree with if you at least agree on some of the facts. We ran out of time, so today we're releasing just the parts that work.<p>An interesting piece is that we serve all of our facts straight out of GitHub (proxied behind an HTTP cache, of course). So you can git blame typos and corrections, etc.<p>We're really eager to find more committers, so take a look and drop me a line if you'd like to get involved!<p><a href="https://github.com/mytakedotorg/mtdo/blob/95af2d1b8c24eaeec173ecb37f2ec1abe69bc6ae/server/src/main/java/controllers/FactApi.java#L83-L87" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/mytakedotorg/mtdo/blob/95af2d1b8c24eaeec1...</a><p><a href="https://github.com/mytakedotorg/us-presidential-debates" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/mytakedotorg/us-presidential-debates</a>
