I spotted the following a while ago. It's a greasemonkey script that is supposed to modify new comments on HN in some distinct way like highlighting them or similar. I haven't tried it or read the code.

Inside comment discussion pages, it places "New Comment" tags next to new comments. Simple but effective. It uses HTML5 local storage, so you'll need a compatible greasemonkey-enabled browser. Frankly, I wish pg would just add this feature to the site itself...
