Follow Hackers Extension

With Follow Hackers it's easy to see what stories your favorite hacker news users are discussing and what they are saying.

How it works:
1) Follow and unfollow users from their user pages.
2) See a list of users you are following from your user page.
3) If a user you follow comments on a story that story will be highlighted.
4) Comments in discussion threads by users you follow will be highlighted.
5) Quickly jump to comments by users you follow.

Notes:
- Check out http://news.ycombinator.com/leaders for some recommended users to follow.
