I've been looking for that button since I first logged on

Hi Rho

Its Byrnesnight here.....a relatively new traveller amongst the rollercoaster ride that is H2G2.

I was just wondering if there is any way of seeing at a glance to which conversation or talk the most recent person has posted to.

I seem to often get involved in chats where either I've logged off for days or I miss getting a reply from somebody because they may log off just before I have replied.

It would be nice to see where an active chat was going on?

Yours, Byrnesnight from Spork.

The most usual way to check on replies is to look at your personal space (U221544) where you can see a list of links to the most recent threads that you're subscribed to. You can see more threads by clicking "Show More Conversations" to go to <./>MP221544</.>. Even if there haven't been any postings to a thread for a few days doesn't mean that you can't 'revive' it by making another post!

Alternatively, to see the last few threads posted to on h2g2, go to <./>info</.> - the page may be slow to load, but, when it does, there's a list at the bottom of the last threads that people posted to.

Finally, if you go to <./>askh2g2</.>, there's always a long list of threads that people have posted to in the past 10 minutes or less - you're bound to find one that you're interested in.

Cheers Rho
