I use and love the Subscribe option to stay current on all the threads that I'm interested in.
There are two other buttons that I've used, but don't see any differences from the before & after: The Follow & Like buttons. What are they for, and do they work?
Thanks,
Joel

Hi Joel
I must admit I don't know the answer - it all sounds like it's something to do with our FaceBook set-up, which I don't get involved with...

Rowan, I thought that might be it, since there was familiar red heart. While I do have a facebook page, I rarely go there, nor do I tweet anymore. Seems kind of point to follow and tweet a sports writer (an example: Sweeny Murti) when 1,000s of other do so, and tweet. You never get an answer. It's like you're a groupie.
As for the facebook page, it's a conglomeration of all the sites latest news. Nothing you can't get here in a much more organized manner.
Thanks
Joel

This function is one of the features of "latest posts" forum preview. One of its filters allows to view just "followed" topics.

Michal, thanks for the heads up. I just checked by clicking the latest posts button, then the favorites button on the 2nd line, and the few posts threads I've clicked the following shows up in a list below. Really a neat idea. But if you subscribed to those threads, you get a notification that a new post has been added. It does list the last added post, but you would have to remember if you read it or not. If your post is the last one, it shows up in red.
I'm going to use this function along with Subscribing, as it will afford me more then one way to follow the action here.
Thanks,
Joel
