At times, you need to track updates on work items where you are not assigned but are related to the work you're doing. By following a work item:
- You get updates via email notifications about the updated on the work items.
- You can even reply to the emails, which will then add your comments against that work item.
Following a work item is a great way to stay up-to-date with its updates and comments. If you follow a task, you see its updates in the Activity Stream and receive instant email notifications.
