This will be much useful for unix.com users who are active most of the time but still do not want to miss out on some great discussions.

To find the best thread of the day is little difficult and time consuming to go over the threads due to the sheer amount of threads being created. A new option could be provided to the moderators in the thread page itself where they can cast their vote for being the thread of the day. Just an option.
