Something I Love about AOOO
AO3 has this feature called "mark for later" which is really cool. If you're looking at recs and you want to read something, but you can't do it right then, you can mark it, and when you have time, you can go to your History and filter for the "marked" stories. Very nice, very nifty.
However, the History itself is awesome. If you don't clear it, it shows everything you've ever read or just looked at, and it even keeps a count of how many times you've viewed each item. So, if you're particularly lazy, you don't even have to "mark for later" - you can just go to your history and scroll to the story you meant to come back to. Of course, that only works *well* if you go back soon, otherwise, you have to scroll through several pages of works, but I will hit a few stories in the morning, so that later, when I'm standing in line somewhere, I can call up my history on my phone, and totally get some reading in without having to search for likely candidates.
AO3, how are you so awesome?!
