i do that with flyertalk!
"sheraton eau claires calgary flyertalk"
"air canada vdb compensation flyertalk"
and what happens when i get my own question answered? I click on the trending page to see what's new and notable on the board
at least that's what i used to do.
i was among the perfect organic traffic customers, i think
Reddit also works like a giant Trending Page, as in your Reddit home page is a mix of the subreddits you subscribe to, based on upvotes and popularity. /R/all is a giant mix of whatever is trending the most at that time.
Funny thing is, in the automotive community they bemoan the death of forums due to Reddit and Facebook.
Whatever, I am just an old man yelling at clouds.
