Yep, Tiffany Timbers introduced this at the last Vancouver workshop. It works really well, as long as instructors take the time to do a dry run first to make sure they get the hang of it. With that prep done, it's really useful for facilitating multiple choice questions, and collecting stats on how well your distractors are distracting. I would recommend using it, and composing a how-to for SWC to help get people up to speed.
