Hubdub Question Reminder Tool

Hubdub should create a tool that allows users to "flag" questions for themselves to revisit on a date closer to closing time.

I, like many users, tend to shy away from questions with lengthy closing dates because they tie up H$ too long and stagnate quickly. However, many of these questions are very interesting and I would like to wager on them except for the aforementioned problem. By sorting through "closing soon" users are confronted with a large number of questions in which they have no interest AND they would have to dig pretty deep to find one that is say a month out. This presents the following problems:

1) users don't wager on questions that interest them
2) markets stagnate and lock in the bettors
3) the site gets choked with a high volume of low activity questions

Here is how the proposed tool would work:

- an icon on the question page allows the user to flag a question for future review
- by clicking the icon the user is prompted to specify a single date or scheduled dates upon which the question will be presented to them again in the future
- a link to these questions would then be posted on the "My Hubdub" page so they can periodically review or modify the settings for the questions
- when a question review date is reached a message will appear to the user upon login, much like the "challenges received" message

Would anyone find this of value? Is there a better way to do it or a modification that would make it more useful?
