View posts since last visit

Bill,
I do not always have access to this site during the week days. So when I do get access, I sometimes use the "View posts since last visit" option and then page back to the list of new posts, rather than looking at the date of the posts in the general categories. A minor problem with this is that when I use this option, which appears to be a search, it seems to quickly lose the list of new posts. I originally noticed it did this if I clicked on a link, but it now seems to do it on a page with pictures, again I presume because of the links.
Am I doing something wrong or is this inherent in the system? Has this been discussed before, if so I can do a search for the solution?
If this is inherent, would it be reasonably easy to add an option to list a limited number (one page) of post topics or individual posts by date irrespective of the general category and irrespective of whether the site thinks you have read them or not, showing the latest first? As I noted, this is a minor problem so please ignore this if it is a significant effort.
Bill, thank you for the great job you are doing with this site and the effort you have put into it.
