Bookmark a post

Throwing another one of my hair brained ideas.

Don't know if it's possible or not, but there are many instances when I wished I could bookmark a post in a thread and then be able to go back to my list and view my bookmarked posts.

In addition, when bookmarking the posts, having the ability to add tags, and/or a description would be nice so that I could search through the bookmarked post list to find what I'm looking for.

For those of us that work on cars a lot and there was that one post from that one guy years ago that you can't remember, it'd be helpful. And for those of us that get into shenanigans on the site, a way to remember those historic posts that makes AZ what it is today.

Great idea. I search for old posts all the time having to try and remember certain keywords that I may have typed or been in the thread. Or try and remember who the hell posted it.

I do the same exact thing. Can be frustrating at times when you also don't know the time period it occurred.

Correction to a typo in my original post:

Don't know if it's possible or not, but there are many instances when I wished I could bookmark a post in a thread and then be able to go back to my control panel and view my bookmarked posts.

definitely a good idea, for specific post.
either that or allow us to write our own notes under subscribed threads, so we know where to look for the post.

You can bookmark a thread I think....but not a post.

Switch over to Firefox and you can bookmark as many as you want. You can set it up to open all of your bookmarks at the same time and lots of other great stuff.

Thanks for the recommendation Ron, didn't think about doing it that way.

Very true!

A good browser always helps.

true. u can set up one folder for acurazine and then just set links in that.

but it will still be great if we can bookmark posts with in acurazine. this way if one is away from their personal laptop/computer. they can still look up those links from where ever they are.
