I love this. The search box had an option to autocomplete terms I had recently searched, I clicked on one (a term I was interested in, obviously) and immediately found an interesting HackerNews post. Nice!

I think HackerNews and other link aggregators (e.g. reddit) have a kind of recency problem, where there is a lot of great content, but people only see the recent stuff. This seems like a great way to uncover some of the latent value of old HackerNews content.

Is there a way to suggest content too? e.g. If you liked that, you'd probably also like X, Y, and Z.
