Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

I'm curious to

I'm curious to know, if people are more interested with a title for a blog or if you just prefer it when they jump right in.  Here are the ex.

Title:  Hi Everybuggy!...

Jump in:  I'm curious to...

I prefer to jump right in because If I 'know' what it is about, I might not be interested in it but I'll never know what I'll get when you jump on in.  Is that confusing?

Yah, I guess you're right.  I had to read that three times before I got it!!  :)

But yes, I agree it's better with 'jump in' I usually unconsciously skip over 'title' threads, I don't know why... I just prefer to know what I'm looking at.  Plus it helps me remember what thread I'm looking for, you know?

To be honest, it doesn't really make much of a difference

to me. I look at all of the new threads.  :)

I agree that jumping right in is better. It's more interesting, and generic titles all blend together until I can't remember what they're about...

Definitely jump in, Charlotte. Remember when I used to give it a title? Nobuggy would read it! So now I just make sure that the very beginning of the sentence is very interesting. Then people read it!
