    OK -- I have just noticed icons at the bottom of all the posts. When I roll over them, they say "furl this post", "bookmark this post in technorati", "add post to del.icio.us" and "digg this post". What are these? Are they new or did I just notice them -- and what do they do? Please help -- I am a little :confused1: .

    Thanks,
    Keelady

    Sorry all...

    Those little icons are used for what they call "Social Bookmarking". You can use those services to track a post from here, rate the posts, and more in one of those services of your choosing, OR all of them if you want. It is simply another way to keep track of posts you like, etc.

    Only way to find out for sure it to sign up in one of those services and test them out with some of the posts in here. I do NOT use them so I am not 100% positive at this point. This forum IS equipped with RSS Feeds, so you can use those services to ping/track, OR simply use Internet Explorer 7 which has a built-in feed reader.
