AT LAST!
Secrets to Winning Headlines Revealed. While Supplies Last!
How many times have your best juicy, important or really funny threads suffered from a poorly composed or written headline?
Remember, once it's submitted you can't change the title/headline/subject!
(Of course you will recognize that using the words: At Last, Winning, Secrets Revealed and While Supplies Last are supposed to grab readers' attention.)
What do you do to make sure people read your headlines?
Anything?
Does it matter? Do you care?
Share your tips here.

either of these are always popular:
"I'm Drunk!"
or
"I Farted!"

None of those, albeit guaranteed, attention grabbers will work unless you are, "gorickey," coming out of retirement or if Apple once again confirms they'll use Intel (it has already been confirmed, right?) processors or unless your thread is about your being drunk or flatulent.

What the nerd community most often fail to realize is that all features aren't equal. A well implemented and well integrated feature in a convenient interface is worth way more than the same feature implemented crappy, or accessed through a annoying interface.
