This actually helps a lot.
There's a time when people read HN and a time when people use the bookmarklet to post(varies from person-to-person depending on the timezone). So people posting via the bookmarklet wouldn't have taken a look at the interesting threads. So when this happens, all the other people's interesting threads would be gone.
People in different time zones have a problem. Yes time-zones do matter.
I reside in a time-zone totally opposite to that of SF or USA. I've noticed that when I post threads in 'my' morning, it rarely gets response. And when I post threads in 'my' evening/night, then there's response. Threads posted(by everyone) during 'my' morning are often pushed down by others new threads. I've also noticed that these new threads are being responded to during 'my' night. So those which are responded to are those which are posted recently.
So the most interesting part - the review threads are missed sometimes. So its better to have a separate section for it.
P.S: I might sound vague but I couldn't explain better.
