We're working on fixing the subscriptions.  They work for some users but not others we haven't been able to figure out exactly what the failure mode is.

The problem as I described it is NOT fixed, and I do rely on checking the site.

As for having to poll the website, you can subscribe to ROS Answers:
go to your profile page and hit the "Subscriptions" link.  It's
reasonably configurable, including frequency of notification and
tag-filtering.

Is this working properly right now? There was a problem where a new question with a subscribed tag did not trigger a notification, but there would be random ones later if one edits the original question: http://answers.ros.org/question/1401/email-notifications-on-interesting-questions

In general I like the "StackOverflow" format, but it's counter-productive if you cannot rely on the subscriptions and regularly have to check the site instead.

Best,
