I found an extension (heh) that significantly improves using the "View posts since last visit" feature here, for FireFox users of course:
http://www.cooliris.com/Site/tutorial-firefox.html
It gives a hover for links that shows a preview of the page. The preview is in a frame, a real window that works like a browser window. So using it here, you can view the new posts in a thread, post from within the preview frame, then close it and look around some more.
(the (heh) was there because I didn't exactly find it, it was linked in a slashdot article, so someone found it for me)
