Review of QuickTopic and Quick Doc.

Great post by Alan at cogdogblog about two useful applications (one for single-topic discussions, the other for gathering comments on documents) with very low barriers to use. I love applications like this (which the folks at the TLT Group call 'Low Threshold Applications') which have a quick pay-off for instructors and students and little or no cost to uptake. – SWL

Afterword: Looks like Alan has previously submitted an LTA to the TLT group – cf. http://tc.unl.edu/cansorge/lta/lta25.html. Any suggestions on how to get them to produce their list as an RSS feed?
