Email on update to thread
Hey Grant,
Something that occurred to me.. I'm subscribed to a couple of projects in sourceforge , and one of the things I really like about how that works is when an issue that that I've opened is subsequently updated by someone else, I get an email to tell me that it's been updated. I can also set a "watch" on someone elses issues, so that I get notified of changes there too. It just means that if there's something I'm particularly interested in, I don't have to keep on manually checking it, as i get updated when it changes, if it changes, sometimes even years later (which is always a welcome event, actually).
Is there anything along these lines available on the HUBB, on a thread by thread basis?
I have to say, the HUBB is a great resource... I'm finding out all sorts of useful information that I just couldn't find together elsewhere. Keep up the good work.
Colm (aka "phoenix")

E-Mail Notification
Colm
Have you seen when you post that you can choose e-mail notification, though I think you might have to add to a thread yourself to 'watch' it.
Your idea is a good one for following threads on your own bike type or region of travel.

Also see "Thread Tools" at the top of the posts - "subscribe to thread"
It's always worthwhile to have a good look around when you visit a new forum - hover your mouse over strange icons, check out all the menus everywhere - there's tons of options most users never find because they are focused on results, and what they know, and gloss over what they don't know.
enjoy the HUBB Colm!

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
