discussion topic

  • 1 discussion board

    E-com
    an area on a Web site that allows people to contribute opinions, ideas, and announcements. It is particularly suitable for casual, one-off interactions because little commitment is required from participants. They can generally review a discussion topic without subscribing, although they do have to subscribe if they want to contribute something themselves.
         It is not essential for the Web site owner to moderate discussion boards, although it is important to watch out for the emergence of “off-topic” subjects—contributions that are unnecessarily negative or perhaps libelous—and copyright infringement.
         A prime example of the success of the discussion board approach is how Amazon.com uses it to allow its consumers to publish book reviews.
