How about "Favorite" threads/blogs
 
I wonder if there's any way to mark a thread as a favorite, besides just doing that in my bookmarks in my browser. But maybe using the browser really is the best solution.

Just answered a question and decided to reference a recent thread.
  1. The fact that the thread is recent was good because I think I learned recently that lists of subscriptions or post history may only go back about 600 or so in length. Given the number of total threads I've subscribed to, if it was very old, I might not have re-found it except with a LQ search.
  2. Being able to rapidly find what I considered to be a good reference thread may be useful. At least it was here.
What are the thoughts? "You can't be serious! Go use your bookmarks?"

There's no way to "favorite" a thread, but using the subscription system with folders should be able to accomplish what you'd like in this case.

Thanks! Someone once mentioned that a long time ago where I commented similarly and back then I didn't get it. I do understand it now. I like that idea.
