Using Discussion Boards Instead of Comments

Comments are an easy way to set up discussions, but it won't be "threaded". In other words, replies can't be made to specific comments. One way around this is to create a free discussion board. There are several free websites. The easiest to use is Nabble.com

Here you can set you post with a question. Go to one of the websites to create the discussion board:
For example you may create a post titled: How do you share the Gospel in the Digital World? In the post, embed the created nabble forum. Each person can add there own threaded answer to the question (include name if you want)by clicking "New Topic", and they can reply to other topics. It is very similar to a blackboard forum used in educational settings.
