In it's most basic interaction, you could use org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.MessageDialog.openQuestion(Shell, String, String) to have the user answer a yes/no question.

If you'd like them to enter a string, you can use org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.InputDialog. After it's closed, getValue() returns their input.
