log user data and display most relavent information based on what they look at the most and search for on the forums. Have those subjects and tags etc on the side and allow the user to delete them from their interests. i might be interested in n900 rebooting bug if i have it and then not interested when it's fixed. so those threads are lower down with the rest of the stuff i'm not that interested in yet.
Sure.. the type of thing we're talking about can be emulated quite realistically enough (not SkyNet, not yet anyway) - but the amount of work we're talking about at this point is so astronomical that I certainly wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a complete relational and dynamic system; including some kind of weighted search system, a memory, a similarity calculator, keyword matching... etc.

Would be cool though . All you do is come on and hit "new posts" and your entire search history, including time spent reading/replying to threads, is taken into account and every single posts is analyzed in a "like/dislike" process and it hides the ones it determines you have no interest in. The forum of tomorrow, today!
