As far as the backlog question, I have used it in the past, but I'm all caught up and so usually just read it as it comes up on my friendspage.
I'm so happy to hear that some people actually do go back through the recs. They get used even after they're off the front page!
I'm here more because I love read the recs themselves, then to make use of the recs (because I've usually already read the story by the time you recommend it), except as reminders for stories I already love.
*beams*
Wow. Thank you. That is amazingly cool. (And, yeah, I'm a huge re-reader of all kinds of things - my feeling is generally, if I enjoyed it once, why not 12 more times? So I have a couple of recs LJs friended just so I can be reminded to re-read stories I love. There's nothing like seeing a link to one of, say, Resonant's stories on my friends list to take a chunk of time out of my day. *happy sigh*)
