What If Widget

The What If widget sparks your curiosity with a new thought-provoking question every day. Each question comes with a vivid scenario imagining what life would be like, plus quick search links so you can dive deeper into the topic.

#How to Use

A new "What if...?" question appears automatically each day. Read the question, then check out the scenario below it for a fun, imaginative take on what might happen. If the topic grabs you, use the search buttons to explore further:

  • Google - search the web for more information
  • YouTube - find videos about the topic
  • Reddit - see what others are saying about it

The search buttons open with a pre-filled query related to the day's question.

#What You'll See

Each day's entry includes:

  • The question - a creative "What if...?" prompt
  • The scenario - a vivid mini-story (a few paragraphs) imagining how daily life, society, or the world would change if the scenario were true
  • Category badge - the topic area, like Science, Technology, or Nature
  • Search links - quick buttons to explore the idea on Google, YouTube, and Reddit

Questions rotate through 10 categories to keep things varied: Space, Technology, History, Human Body, Society, Science, Future, Psychology, Animals, and Nature.

#Widget Settings

  • Show Category - show or hide the category badge in the toolbar. Turned on by default.
  • Show Scenario - show or hide the scenario text below the question. Turned on by default. Turn it off to see just the question.
  • Show Google Search - show or hide the Google search button. Turned on by default.
  • Show YouTube Search - show or hide the YouTube search button. Turned on by default.

#Tips

  • Check in each day for a fresh question - there's a new one waiting every morning.
  • Turn off the scenario if you just want a quick daily question without the full story.
  • The search buttons are a great way to go down a rabbit hole on an interesting topic - try Reddit for the most creative discussions.
  • Hide individual search buttons if you only use one or two of the services.
