Is there a way to bookmark threads?

[Steve]

I'm sure you can copy the URL at the top, but it might be just as easy to "subscribe" to them.

What is your goal? You want to find it later or do you just want to know if something has been added?

.

[AMK]

I want be able to find it later.
I did search subscribing and found nothing on it either.

Check the box under thread tools.



Then if you click your user name at the top right, and then click subscriptions in your activity feed to see them.
(This is the basic way I do things and there is probably a much simpler way)

Thanks oldman, that's handy.
Steve provoked a thought as well. I copied the link into a spreadsheet and I'm able to catagorize the topics.
I just need to figure out a way to implement the Dewey Decimal System

[Steve]

Screw the Dewey system, do one that makes sense (to you).

I would suggest two columns, one for the link, the other for your description.

I would also suggest different tabs for different topics. Have a "Fuel" tab, an "Electrical" tab, an "Engine" tab, etc.

That's what I did. I was kidding about the Dewey system.

Don't forget the shim tab.

This opens up an incredible record keeping system.

[Steve]

Screw the "shim tab", get my spreadsheet.

[Sandy]

Screw the "shim tab", get my spreadsheet.

......and then just add new sheets at the end of Steve's.

"tagged" (I'll be following thread when I get the time).

OH, it doesn't work to just rant a bunch in a thread and find it later in "profile" because they get deleted off there quick, like too quick. Probably another setting for that?

I've noticed the short recent history in profile also. That is probably due to space conservation.
The subscription is handy for keeping up on some things, which oldman pointed out ( thanks oldman ) but I wanted more of a catalogue of how to's and tech information. Steve's spreadsheet and Sandy's suggestion are perfect for what I want (thank you two guys as well).

Absolutely, that is a huge resource.
I have also run across some very helpful threads that haven't made into Basscliffs site.
