Is there a way to follow friends? Or easily find where they have been posting....

lately? I know there is a site search, but it isn't working really well. How else do I find where my new buddy is? He wants to find me and I have no idea!
TIA for your help!

You have a star and so you can use that.

It works pretty well, in my experience.

Or, if you've PM'd him or vice versa, you can click on his username in your inbox, and it will tell you where and when he posted last.

past twelve or more years. (If you're in NYC, me and Priyanka are planning a metope after the convention this fall).
This is actually the first time that someone I know from another online site has joined because of me. And he asked me these questions because he just got here and wants to find me every once in a while. I've never been as good at finding posts as many here, so I just figured there was a way for him to find me, but had no idea. He likes the site, but it is kind of huge, so he asked and I figured others would know better.
