Is there an easy way to stalk people?

[cornflakegirl]

I have a few people in my friends / contacts list, that I sometimes stalk to see if they're posting anything interesting that I can learn from. Is there an easy way to check recent posts by a bunch of people, or do I need to continue to track each one individually?

[cornflakegirl]

To About this board (sensible place really!) - the path is shown at the top left...

As far as your question is concerned: the easiest thing I can think of off the top of my head would be to bookmark the 'recent posts' link for each particular person you're looking to follow.

For example, this is the link for posts made by yourself:
http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/search.php?searchid=575646

I just tried following that link, and it says Sorry - no matches. Could you let me know how you constructed the search, because I'm being thick...

Ta.

Hmmm... it looks like the search id only lasts a couple of hours... looks like I'm back to stalking the old-fashioned way

Ah, sorry about that. I didn't realize it was a 'searchid' in the url.

I know you can get there from the static profile links, though
From there, click on the 'Statistics' tab to find the link for posts

Yeah, that was my old-fashioned way

Thanks Kristy.
