Hi,

Here's the suggestion:

When you press the Active Topics link you get a list of topics that have been active since your last visit. This is good and all but it only takes me to the topic level. Instead of scaning through the topic after new posts, why don't add a link somewhere that takes you to the first post that's been posted since your last visist.
I know there is a blue arrow you can press to get to the last post, but I don't find that as useful. I wan't to go to the first post I haven't read.

It would be nice if someone could implement this. Doesn't sound to hard to do, I just don't know how.

I don't think it should be too hard, you'd just need to extend active topics to not only search for new topics (and without access to code I'm thinking active topics compares time of last visit to time of last posts?) you'd then search the posts and limit results to the top 1 being ordered by post time. That wouldn't do exactly what you're wanting as like Huw said Snitz doesn't track the topics you've read... it'd just be an extension to active topics. Maybe a mixture of the mod ajhvdb linked to and that?<
