Comments Feature
The Comments feature on the question pages could be really useful in creating a lively atmosphere and a stronger sense of community. But it's not quite like that now. The reason is that it's hard to keep up with comments when you don't know they've been made. So it would be great if My HubDub could have some kind of topics you're following tab, which would include questions you've commented on, and any that you've ticked off (in the comments tab of a question) as worth following. When new comments come in (since you've visited the question) that could be reflected in bold type in your "I'm following" list.
As it is now, you comment on a question, close the window, and you may never know that someone replied to your comment. It's a real dialogue-killer.

Inappropriate?Hi InfernalMachine,
Great suggestion and I totally agree that it's difficult to follow the comments as it is. This is something that we are looking to add as soon as we can and it's on the feature list that we have here. Another feature that would help would be a facebook style activity list in my hubdub with all the recent activity that's applicable to you and your questions etc. Just not enough hours in the day at the moment! But keep the suggestions coming in.
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?Glad to hear that. At the beginning I went into my own profile and revisited topics where I had made comments just so that I wouldn't miss an answer. But I learned fast that it was too much effort for an rather tiny result :)

Inappropriate?On a similar note, I think that, although the News feature is central to the hubdub concept, its current implementation ends up being a bit superfluous. I know I hardly follow any of the links, and to be honest hardly look at that tab.
Maybe you could add a Digg-like feature on the Home Page, where you can see news items that are linked to by the most questions, and even linked to by the questions with the most money wagered in total.
