Also on a related note, I created a Greasemonkey script that allows you to navigate through the comments chronologically, using the right and left arrow keys. It helps with the problem that, once a thread becomes mature, it's hard to find the latest comments that were added.
It searches for specific usernames in a comment thread (replicating the ctrl+f 'by $username' trick that stopped working when the comment-header syntax changed to hide comment karma), then scrolls to the next result every time you re-click it. You choose the usernames to search for by editing the query variable in the bookmarklet.
I love the simplicity of HN polls, but if you use GoPollGo, you can see votes segmented by different countries/states/district. Soon we'll be adding the ability to split votes by age/gender/browser/os/referring website.

Would be great if someone made a list of the best (or all) HN bookmarklets and Greasemonkey scripts

Unfortunately, my chrome bookmarks bar is completely filled up with other bookmarklets like this.
