Ask HN: Do you read link summary or just the title while searching?

2 pointsadakbar1 comment

While searching in any search engine, do read the short summary or just the title to determine that was something you want to know?

Depends on the quality of the title and what I am searching for.

Generally I've found that a lot of people are not terse enough with webpage titles, email subjects or forum post titles (which become webpage title).

I'm curious as to why you ask such a question. ;)
