I think this brings up something that has bothered me a little bit about the comment system here. I would really like some kind of notification system when someone has replied to a post of mine because once a link falls off the front page, the conversation pretty much dies unless I randomly check my comments page.

View on HN

That might be what the "notifo" field on your profile is for. They're some kind of notification service (YC2010) but I don't see any docs on how to use them on HN. (Not in the faq anyway and hnsearch just returns a bunch of articles about them making plugins and getting investors)

The process is actually relatively painless and still seems to work.

Wow, nice find, never even thought to dig in to that. If you check out the notifo services, they have the information on setting everything up.
