something the forum needs

I have visited this forum  frequently.  I have used its search to find answers to some problems I have had.   At times I have wanted to contribute because I feel I should given that others have helped me.

However, I find this dificult because there is no button to take me to 'Todays posts'.  There should be a link to todays post so that people can easily help others.  It should be clearly visible and always at the top of every page of the forum so that whenever a user wants to help anybody on any subject he can just click it and read all the new questions from every board.

Is this so dificult to implement?  Who else feels that we need this?

Re: something the forum needs

Well there are links to view posts for the last 12/24/48 hrs which is pretty close to what you are asking for, I feel.

There's also "View unanswered posts" (which I've used when in the mood to be helpful).

If you visit the front page, these links are on the upper right-had corner -- unless you're NOT logged in.

Yeah, the 12/24/48 option is enough in my opinion.  I'm not so sure I'd want to see it on every page, however.
