it means if you look at the main stock board's page, up and to the right, you see a number.

only 4 people had this marked today (earlier) and i was number 5 when i clicked on "follow this board"

its now at 79 and likely to be higher soon.

hope that info helps.

When you click the name of the board, you can see, at the top of the message list for the board (over to the right) a count of the "followers" for the board. You can also click the link that says "follow board" - essentially this makes it a favorite within iHub for you and does two specific things - adds that board to the lists of boards shown in your iHub Favorites, and increments the counter.

Before they changed the terminology (to align with Twitter) this was a "board mark" and most here still use that term.

The number of board marks, therefore, is a metric indicating level of interest, and if that number rises quickly, as has happened here, it is a sign that the stock is "on the radar" for a lot more folks than before.
