Top down or bottom up?
A bit of a silly question but when you come onto the forum do you start with the most recent thread and work back to when you last logged on or go back to where you last were and work forward?
If I start with the newest first I can end up sticking with a lively thread and not making any progress backwards. But if I start with the oldest I can sometimes lose a thread down the cracks as I roll forward a page.
Trivial I know but when you haven't been on all weekend it takes all morning to catch up and I need a better strategy. At least I am doing it in work's time not my own

Bottoms up for me everytime... 
(Which can be a bit of a pain in the a*se, as I flit between having weeks of constant 'foruming' and then give it a rest for a while....sometimes I have a lot to catch up on...

I glimpse at the new ones and make a mental note of the ones that look interesting and then go and pick up on the old ones. to this i usually go on my profile and check them off from there.
