Beta: New Comment Notifications

As of right now, whenever you post a comment on Soylent Red you will be given the option of getting email notifications about new comments on that post. This is about the minimum that a site can do to try to keep conversations flowing, since most people (quite rightly) will not tend to check back on an old post looking for new comments. There may be bugs, so don't be afraid to tell me if something doesn't work right.

Well I've just checked the database and it looks like you've been added. If you get an email about this comment then it works.

Yep, it certainly does work all right. Well done Rory, now if you can only figure out a way of saving bookmarks from firefox to a single text file you will be crowned "all high genius of saturn"

Your Firefox bookmarks are in the bookmarks.html file in your profile (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile). Is that good enough? Once you have the file you can do all sorts of nice things with it as long as you have a decent set of editing tools (*cough*Unix).
