how about a "View first unread" link in the forums? this feature can be useful when one is coming back to a long post or an old thread that has been revived..

if you click on the "new" graphic shown next to a thread it takes you to the first unread post in the thread - it's all i ever use.

i missed it to for the first few months...
a nice change might be to go to first unread even when you click on the main title of the thread - there aren't many cases where that's not what you want.
