How do you use all the information gathered on Free Republic? I never becaome proficient but I do not know if anyone can keep up or even make a dent as posting go by so fast. Blink and there are 5 new stories. Help.

Anything you might want to revisit later just respond with a "bump" to the thread. That will place it in the "your comments" header at the top.

I second the nomination for Caffeine.

Also, a quick finger on the F5 key helps, too.

It's almost like being with a woman; start at the top and work your way down slowly.

Don't blink as often... ;-)

Series, you just have to decide what to respond to and what not to. Also, don't read the posts completely, skim them. Of course, if you think you're going to need to repsond, reading the post is encouraged...

Print every article you want to read, and then read them when you are using the "little boys room."

1. Hit refresh and scan down visually until you see something interesting.

2. Read it and reply if you so choose.

3. Hit back button to return to list of posts.

4. Continue scanning down visually.

5. When you get to the last post, go to step 1.

I tend to make use of the google search engine
I go to the www.google.com site and in the search field I type something like:

Hillary Unreconstructed Bolshevik Communist Clinton site:www.freerepublic.com

Usually gets some hits
