News tip...

Here's an idea...

Since CoasterBuzz includes comments on the news items...how about something in the headline to indicate not only when the news was posted, but also when the most recent comment was posted. Either that, or some indicator (similar to those on the forums) that there are new comments on the news item since last visit...

That's already in line for the revision. Didn't you suggest that before, Dave?

And where's some version of your famous signature now that you have the pre tags? ;)

I'd watch what you ask for Jeff. How much free disk space do you really have now? :)

Scott, he's been after me to import some version of the signature ever since he started this thing. Except that he's only got a 255-byte signature buffer...about 36 bytes too short to do it right... 8-)

One of these days I'll get 'round to it...

I asked about this a short while back, and I believe it was Neil who suggested "Read all current news," since it tells you how many posts have been made to each topic.

Sad thing is, you've got to keep track of how many posts each thread has in your head... ;)
