I mostly see only topic titles unless people direct me to topics or there's a problem, but judging by titles alone, I've seen what look like to-do lists, posting and critique of poetry and prose (especially in schools, judging by the .k12 and .edu email addresses), role playing games, job posting boards, discussion boards for city governments, restaurant and club reviews, job candidate reviews... I've forgotten more than I remember.

I use it of course for all my design notes.

People use Doc Review in innovative ways too. For example, someone I know has discussion points that need to be answered each time a certain process happens -- sort of a linear workflow problem. So for each instance of the process, they upload the same template document. As a quick checklist, they just look for the 'glasses' icon, and can see details using the Comment Review page.
Another recent fun one: at David Weinberger's suggestion I grabbed a transcript of Bush's State of the Union address and uploaded it for review.

One new feature that'll make for even easier branching from email will open up lots more possibilities. I think I'll announce it soon, when I release QuickTopic Pro.
