Along with Gargoyle's comment, When you look at the 'Forum List' the Icon to the left of the forum is a different color if you have not read a Topic in that forum (which I like). You can click on the topic link to the right so see the most recent topic post. When you come back to the 'Forum List' the Icon changes to a color that is the same as all the other icons letting you know you have read all the recent posts in that topic, but it is deceptive because the icon changes after the first post you read in that topic, there maybe other topics that you may not have read yet.
