    Just taking a short break at work and popped on the board to see what the most "recent topics" are? And then is dawned
    on me how does everyone else read this board?
    Do you only look "recent topics"? Do you read each topic by itself? like click of "main" or "Pictures" or "recipes" and then read post in each topic?

    I know I am missing things on here, but there is SO much good stuff to read.

    Just curious

    Make it a Great Day!

    I scan the recent topics first then I go to some of my favorite forums and check them out for things I may have missed.

    I check the unread posts first of my 3 favorite forums, then I meander around a bit.

    i always pull up the unread topics under the sections that i've subscribed to. that way, i never miss at least the beginning of the discussions. if it is a topic that i want to read more about, i open it on another tab to check back later. i don't like the watched topics. then, occasionally, i go to the home page and pull up All Sections and browse through those i don't subscribe to.

    I go to pictures first, then general chit-chat, then links, then tutorials.

    Some days, I want to start with main if I'm in a quilting mindset. Other days, I may go to Pictures for ideas or ChitChat. I only go to tuts if I'm looking for something I can't find or need help with. I check swaps twice a month and classifieds about twice a week.
