Requirements

How do we process the posts? IDK, up to you. Let's get creative. The purpose is to enable a megaphone feature or signal amplifier on the community. We've got to track links being shared (normalized of course, without query parameters) and track measure the virality of the content. We will want to display it on a community board that in an engaging way, contextualized with info about where it came from (maybe). Who posted it first? etc.

This can get really interesting. Can we track the propagation of information through the community? How do we display the info? What sorting features would we want? Work closely with the DataViz contributor.
