Is there a way, within the EC forum (ie not my browser), to "Favourite" a thread and/or, in particular, a post? Sometimes someone just posts something so inciteful I'd like to be able to return to it, even if it's within a thread that is not personally applicable.
Click on thread tools at the top of the thread and then subscribe to the page. You can then view your subscribed pages in the quick links tab at the top of the page.
Another thing that you conceivably could do is to blog the post. By default, your blog is set to private so that only your contacts and mods can see it. You can do that by clicking this: little icon in the bottom of the post.
