[|Edistorm] appears to be a site with similar functionality to [|Wallwisher]. However, it allows users to "vote" on the best ideas presented in the space. This adds an evaluative component to brainstorming or reading response. Very cool! The only drawback to this site is that students must have accounts. Also, the site has paid and free versions. I believe that free versions would be suitable for generic classroom purposes. Enjoy! [|The Best Online "Cork Boards"] Online Sticky Notes
