We did something similar to this with a wiki. Everyone in our design group had to read two articles, and we tried to ensure that each article had at least two readers. When we were done, we had one place with all the ideas summarized. The two readers helped in case one person wasn't able to read and in some cases, presented different takes on the reading. We decided it was a great way to cover a lot of material in a short period of time, and the wiki is still available, so we can always go back and reference.</p> Love this idea!
