Notification idea. For practically everything else I try to stay current on (hacker news, blogs, even some twitter feeds, etc.), I rely on RSS. (annoyingly can't use it for a Facebook Group I need to monitor). Would be really nice to be able to subscribe to any Futureland journal's top-level posts via RSS. I find that as things are now, I forget about this Meta journal for days (I think it's been over a week since I thought to see what was going on here…)
I suppose that's anathema to someone trying to build a platform and keep users "on the platform", but it would be a god send for someone like me whose daily "what's new and what should I look at" process revolves around my RSS reader.
