Doesn’t WordPress support the ability to subscribe to a post, or at least allow the originator of the post to be notified if a comment is added?
When you have more than a couple posts you’re interested in the follow-ups on, it’s very difficult to keep track of them. You can’t even search by author in the search box, so if I wanted to check for replies to any of by posts, short of drilling down into each topic and going through the most recent pages using ctrl-F to search for my name, it’s impossible.
Or maybe someone should use the jqWidgets library, and implement a website that scrapes this one, allows for better searching, and allows users to subscribe to threads…
