Appropedia Blogs

We now have email notification, which is great. But in a perfect world, they would have these features:

• Subject: should indicates the subject of the original post for the topic. (If comment subjects are like LJ, i.e. Re: " unless deliberately changed, then posting the comment subject might be an option. But it should be the comment subject that you posted, as someone's newly changed subject won't ring any bells. E.g. A reply to your comment "Bio fuel cells are a better option" has been posted.'')
• Keyword notification: An Indonesian forum I found has a feature where you can be notified every time a posting is made on a certain topic. See here, top left it says ' Subscribe Opini: 'Setiap ada TULISAN BARU tentang Express Taxi, akan dikirim ke e-mail Anda. I.e. " Subscribe to Opinion: Whenever there's NEW WRITING about Express Taxi, it will be sent to your email.
• Reply within email (like Livejournal). That would be extremely cool.

(Actually, in a perfect world, there'd be no poverty or environmental problems, and I'd be on a sailing boat sipping pina coladas...)

Anything else?

(Sidenote - minor bug: Unlike MediaWiki, bold and italic don't always work together unless they're done together, i.e. 5 apostrophes together. Specifically, putting bold inside an italic block works, with the bold also keeping the italic attribute:

  e.g. 1:  Italic: bold italic more italic.  
  e.g. 2: Bold italic just italic

But italic inside bold doesn't work:

  e.g. 3: Bold italic more bold.  

e.g. 4: Bold italic just bold )
