how do you view bikeforums
personally i only look at SS/FG. sometimes poke my head into the track forum or the commute forum, but most bore (or is it boar) me.
how do ppl follow threads? i usually just open each thread of in a tab, and then reload every 10 minutes or so, but theres gotta be an easier way.
someone please clue me in.

Advocacy & Safety forum (I guess I just can't get enough of helmet/earphone/bike-lane debates.), followed by commuting, followed by SS & fixed-gear. Save the best for last 
.
Rarely ever peek into the others. Checked out the "Alt Cycling Culture" forum when it was first added, but I have neither a large garage, a welder, nor a bunch of time on my hands so I'm better off avoiding that one, lest I get the urge to start constructing tall-bikes.

I read the mechanics forum when I have a problem.
Road / mountain forums scroll too fast for me to keep up with.
Commuting is interesting sometimes.
As is "alt bike culture" when it's not someone asking questions about their stock Dyno Cruiser.
I read fixed / ss whenever the hive mind taps me on the shoulder and tells me to spend more money.
