The XCurrency forum has a neat feature:

From http://xctalk.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&do=viewNewContent&search_app=forums&change=1
There's a few forums I check several times per day, and this feature saves me a bit of hassle. (I'm assuming) it shows me all threads that have new posts since the last time I visited the site. Also helpful: if I reload or page through the results, it maintains my "last visit" time, so I don't have to worry about missing any topics if I go to another page on the forum.
I can achieve almost the same thing on the BTSTalk forums by visiting the Recent Unread Topics (https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?action=unread) page, but there are two important differences:
- If I load some topics in new tabs as I'm going down the list and then page through the topics list (e.g., click on the link to go to page 2 on the unread topics page), I think I sometimes miss a few topics. E.g., topics that would have been at the top of page 2 "move" to the bottom of page 1, but since this doesn't happen until I go to page 2, I just end up not seeing those topics.
- When I'm done, I have to remember to click the "Mark All Messages As Read" button, which I suspect has the side effect of marking as read any posts that were created after I loaded the "Recent Unread Topics" page but before I clicked the MAMAR button (i.e., that I didn't actually get a chance to see before marking them as read).
