YHackers: Click that "New" link
You know, I had a thought about this - why not make it an option to show me  the 5 most recent new submissions on the bottom of the index page (e.g., the top 25 plus 5 latest). It's not a perfect solution, but at least I'll be aware it's there.<p>I understand that could lead to some nasty gaming of the system though, just the first idea I thought of.
