Ask HN: How do you consume Hacker News?

I visit the site every day or so, scan the front page for interesting things, then read those. I definitely don't care for seeing every single article. It's a river, I take a dip.

I don't care about "missing" anything because new stuff is always coming along. The "missing" attitude leads to information overload. E-mail's the only thing I don't want to miss, not inane news on the net.

I don't want to read every article either. But if there was a story last week that got 300+ points and is no longer on the website, I want to be able to find it.

You can do that using the best list at http://news.ycombinator.com/best. This is the best recent stories, for some value of recent (I believe 10 days).
