Thread:Feedback/Interesting scannable table of contents format at a Google Help forum

See, for example, the "Suggestions and Ideas" forum for Google Sites:

The table of contents crosses the whole screen except for the left sidebar. There are lots of names and dates. The number of replies is indicated.

Most importantly, the text is small and sans serif. So there are many topics on one page of the screen. And they are easy to read and scan. The alternating blue and white background helps in scanning, too.
