Spotlight Discussions

I have seen many quotes at the top of the forums that merit some discussion and possibly some questions that just don't fit the thread that those quotes were posted in. Would it be possible to add a "Start Topic" button next to the spotlights or even a little graphic?

If takes a bit of time don't worry about it, but if its something simple, would it be possible for it to be implemented similar to how we make topics about media and white papers?

Thanks,
Pavan

Re: Spotlight Discussions

I was thinking along the same lines lastnight. I like to read the spotlights, and frequently like to contribute to them.

Re: Spotlight Discussions

I would request that the topics be listed under the Chit-Chat forum, so we have the option of keeping them off of the Portal.

Re: Spotlight Discussions

The spotlights come from already begun discussions.
Why not just follow the link to their respective threads and contribute your own perspective to the already created thread instead of making new ones?
