Huddle

**What it is**
Established in the UK in 2006, "Huddle is a network of secure online workspaces where you can share files, collaborate on ideas, manage projects and organize virtual meetings. It offers all necessary tools in one place online to work effectively across boundaries: internally and with externally with other education organizations, researchers and students." //Huddle.net//

**How it Works**
The **//Discussions//** part of Huddle offers three simple features:
 * 1) Quickly start a conversation with team members to keep all ideas into one central space.
 * 2) See how many posts have been added and by whom,
 * 3) Enter discussions at any time and add comments.
