There's a feature that I really like on this site, that lists the "similar threads" at the bottom of each thread you're currently reading. It sometimes makes it very easy to find where the same topic has been discussed before, and can often replace the need to go and search. That said, the way the logic works, every time a new thread is posted it is added to the index. Over time, it gets a little stale, with less accuracy to the "best" similar thread. To fix this, I can kick off a manual rebuild of the similar threads index, where the software takes a look at every existing thread and rebuilds the index from scratch.

This is just a reminder of the feature's existence, and a quick notification that if you weren't happy with the accuracy of its suggestions, it may now seem a bit more on target.
