A nice feature at another forum is a boxed "Unanswered" thread list that appears alongside the regular forum list. That box makes it easy to zoom in on things that need to be researched or FAQ-linked.

It also has a boxed "My Discussions" list to easily transfer the eye to things one is already caught up in.

And.... :~) both help with member time management. Like Mudcat, each of these boxes shows newest items at the top.
