thread

In computing, subject line of electronic messages within an online topic or conference. Most online conferencing systems use some kind of threading; one advantage is that it makes it easy for readers of a particular conference or forum to skip over sections that do not interest them. Threading is an important feature of off-line readers, as otherwise it is difficult to tell how individual messages relate to one another.
