Hey,

About every other day I find an interesting thread that would take to long to catch up to.
I wonder if there could be implemented some sort of "read later" functionality.

I would prefer that to e.g. bookmarking for several reasons.
One of the reasons is that my bookmarks are a mess (have to clean/sort every few weeks).
The other is that it might be easier if its incorporated into the app as well. I think it's nice to have a list somewhere of interesting topics you might have forgotten for commuting etc.

I know this isn't exactly trivial (the coupling with the app that is).

The watch thread capability is useful for active threads but eventually they die out which can void the goal.

So how is it different than bookmarks or watched threads?

btw, do you mean browser bookmarking? Because PF does have an internal bookmarking system available to Gold members :)
