Since the Slashdot (The website for nerds) lunched a new AJAX-style comment filtering system, it’s much easier to read the high-score-interesting-and-Insightful comments for stories.

If you look closer, you will find an arrow in the comments list of a story. The arrow is keyboard shortcuts indication just like gmail, which help you read the messages by using the keyboard.

But the keybindings are different with Gmail or other forum discussion system. You can learn the keybindings in Slashdot’s FAQ.
