How to handle webmasterworld.com

[pmkpmk]

I'm at home. Sick. Caught a nasty pneumonia at CeBIT, got my lungs x-rayed, get antibiotics and have to stay at home until monday. I'm bored.

Instead of having my 3 out of 7 days 5-minute-scan on webmasterworld.com, seeing if my posts have been asnwered and shuffling through new posts in my flagged threads, I now have time. Lots of time.

I reload the "recent posts" page every minute. I look at nearly EVERY new post. I posted more messages today than in the last month. No, I DON'T want a discussion on quantity vs. quality.

What I found was a LOT of interesting threads. Threads I would have otherwise missed. Which might have never come to my attention with my normal webmasterworld.com-scanning-routine.

Now I wonder how others handle this? Being happy with the occasional snaphsot? Using tools - and if yes - which tools? Spending hours scaniing past threads?

How do YOU do it?

You oughta be in bed, resting.

I made notice of a few forums today that I've never set foot in. Got me to wondering what I'm missing. Mostly I go where the job of the day takes me. The last few days I'm lurking in Foo more than not... you can figure what I've been doing. And, I have learned to keep an eye on the recent posts.

Get well soon.

OK, ok, I found where to disable the auto-refresh of the "recent posts" list. Haven't looked hard enough...

How do I do it?
I browse WebmasterWorld member's profiles :)
