    I don't I just update the page and go cherry picking the blue dot areas with new posts.

    Was curious to find out if others used it.

    Yep same as all those above, I then see everything new in one click without the need to go into 5 different areas.

    I use "New Posts" as well however I would like a way to be able to see quickly what posts I have posted in that have new comments ? That way I can quickly respond or ignore depending on what the post may be. Also a way to mark a group of posts as read would be handy :) so I don't have to keep seeing them on the "New Post" section even though t hey are not highlighted.

    I don't know about the mark as read option. but for the posts I have made that have new comments i use the tag at the very bottom of the home page (bottom left) "show your posts" that brings up your recent posts, and has the new highlight if there are new postings. It maybe easier for those of us with fewer posts perhaps?
