How do I put a question on my watch list?

I searched the help files but couldn't find an exact answer. When I answer a question, sometimes I ask for more details. Is this what the watch list is for, so I can check back on that question to see if there is more info? Thank you all.

Update:

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. It was so simple, but I couldn't figure it out. You are very kind to answer.

    put your cursor over the little plus thing underneath the question, then click on "Add to my watch list"

    On the far right of the new action bar, there is a plus sign. When you click on it, you get a drop down menu. The first item is Add to my watch list. Click on it and it's added.

    The watch list can be used to keep tabs on questions you've asked or answered or any other question you want to keep tabs on. It's a handy way to check the status of your questions and answers. To keep the list from getting too large, I remove questions after they have been resolved. Removing questions from your watch list does not remove them from the list of "My questions" or "my answers." Those listings are permanent.

    Source(s): I use the watch list all the time. This question will be added to my list once I submit the answer.
