It would be useful to have a concept of giving an answer in a hidden form so only the question maker can it. This would allow others to answer without seeing the answers already given. Tomas.A suggested "or we could have and it would show only when u click on it like in forums"

Hm. Not a terrible idea, but it's going to be pretty low on priority list. Definitely see the usefulness though :)

I think if you add a little bit of "fun" to any learning environment then people tend to learn more. I would consider this such a feature. I would use it to, say, set a monthly brain teaser for everyone to take part in.

If it makes the implementation easier, you could the ability to "Set a Quiz.." as well as "Ask a question..." where "Set a Quiz..." would only show the answers given to the Quiz setter who would also be allowed to "reveal" some or all of the answers (e.g. at the end of the Quiz).

I love that idea.  I like the idea of challenging OpenStudy brains!
