So, where do you usually start on GN

I go straight to 'Active'. If you don't come in regularly it's easy to miss interesting posts if they slip down, though. Sometimes I put a thread in 'Watching', but then I forget, so when I eventually look they're completely out of date .

I just do the "Active" list, but when something is getting a lot of comments, I was always too slow.......then I discovered the refresh icon [shame]

I always start with 'active', but sometimes I'll hunt out a particular thread if I'm wondering how someone is or if I want to know what happened next. Sometimes when it's busy I never get further than the first few threads before it's time to leave GN and get on with other things - then I ponder and think about what I've been reading. (Keep wondering what's happened to ninathe nana's Samuel for instance. Am now thinking about Gally's daughter and wondering how granbunny's dad got on.....)

I always start on Active then browse Last Hour then last Day usually in that order unless I am caught by something really important,I try to pop back in after lunch to see if any drastic changes if not I try and catch up about this time whilst mr.glamma has the news on TV.

I go straight to last hour!

I usually start with 'last hour' to see what's firing everyone up. Then I look at 'I'm on' in case there's been a response to a comment or a thought. I'll now try 'active' and 'watching' (as advised).

Where's the refresh icon nanachrissy? And what does it do?

Jack It's a circular arrow at the end of the link bar at the top of my screen. If you click on it after reading the last posting, it will bring any new posts up, that have happened in the minute while you were reading!

Oh you mean on the 'puter!

I was looking on the site.

I asked for one but Matron Geraldine said 'no! Said I might that syndrome from too much clicking! Repetitive something.

Strain Jingle!

I refresh the page by pressing F5 at the top of my keyboard.

I just go on Active all the time.

I always start with watched, then unanswered, last hour and last day depending on when I last looked. I only use active if I have missed more than 24 hours.

Istart with last hour, but I realise that why I'm always coming in to something half way through and so don't have anything more to add. I will do the active thing from now on and who knows, I may one day have something interesting to say!

I always start with Active, in fact I spend most days there

F5 all the time.

Always start with Active.

Last hour , then last day , then unanswered , then active

I start with last hour, then last day, then back to last hour.

GoldenGran you have lots of interesting things to say. If we all listened to what we thought of ourselves none of us would post a comment!

Last hour, last day then active then check I'm on if I have written a thread lately to see if any responses!
It is certainly addictive , when I have time. DH now comments that I am on the Gransnet site again!

Last hour, last day ...hadn't realised about 'active' or 'I'm on' ...have usually done the later via 'search' (which isn't as clear!) Thanx for kittyleester

Well I've learnt something else today! I didnt realise there was an "active" button only ever used "last hour and last day" that shows I should be a bit more observant! Thanks for that tip.

Not that there is much difference between 'active' and 'last day' at the moment!

Depends how trigger happy I am.
Golden Your posts are very much appreciated

I'm an active fan

"I'm on", then 'Active' then if there is time, 'Last Day'. If I pop back later I start with 'Last hour'.
