I know a handful of you, like me, like to participate in all of the forums on the website, which is great. I love that and I appreciate that. But I've heard from a few of you that it's hard to sometimes keep track of what's been posted that's new.

You can get notifications for any forums that you subscribe to, and you can get that stuff by email too.

But a lot of people don't know that there's a User Comments screen where you can see all of the latest comments posted on all of the forums by everybody, and it will even show you if you've seen it or not. You'll see a little red "new" next to each post.

So I added a link to the screen on the user logon bar across the top of the site. I also made it so this page refreshes every 60 seconds (unless you turn that off). One of the things that I'll sometimes do when I'm working on something else, like a class or emails or whatever, is I'll leave my admin monitor screen up so I can see if there are any new posts. And us admins and moderators, we can see across the top - we got our own special admin bar - whenever there's a new post that we have to approve.

But for everybody else, you guys can just leave this User Comments screen open, and if there are any new posts that pop up, your screen will refresh, and you'll be able to see it and participate. So I'm just doing what I can to make it easier for you guys to spend more time on my website, lol.

Let me know if you have any comments, suggestions, thoughts, or ideas.
