Mark updated stories as Unread

Hi, quite often I read stories as soon as they are published and miss subsequent updates. Is there a way of marking updated stories unread or otherwise highlighting updated stories? That would be very helpful. Cheers and thanks for Newsblur.

I think about how some feeds are constantly updating their content. Think Twitter feeds and how the liked/retweeted numbers are constantly changing. Some feeds make edits but they aren’t substantive.

I’m thinking a minimum character change count, something like more than 20 characters between edits.

Ha that was a classic case of a user saying “I want that!” without thinking through the details. I was more thinking of updates where publishers add new sentences or paragraphs to their stories, so your thoughts sound very reasonable.

Is there a reasonable chance this gets implemented? I’m curious how many other users would like to see that feature.
