Social network sites would draw students, too, I think

Yahoo Answers is a great social network site. I've used it with my students and they love it.
When we do discussion questions in class, for example, I get them to post the questions on YA, and we look through the answers later. It's a good way to expose them to 'real English' and they can see how the answers differ from theirs in structure etc.
It also encourages them to give more thoughtful answers because they don't want to be outdone!
