Slightly irritated general request

[redbird]

Could people please include some useful description or labels when you post links. Not just "I agree with some but not all of his points" or "so-and-so makes sense". Take the extra moment to say "I agree with some but not all of his points about labeling and sexual orientation" or "so-and-so makes sense about $specified_topic_or_event".

At least, do that if you care whether I read the articles you're linking to.

Remember to use the title attribute when building links, you can build-in more information.

I went to see <cite><a href="http://imdb.com/title/tt0385004/" title="iMDB entry">House of Flying Daggers</a></cite> last night.

I'm buying into the hype over <cite><a href="http://archive.salon.com/ent/indie/2004/10/07/daggers/" title="Salon Review, Subscription Required">House of Flying Daggers</a></cite>.

The contents of the title attribute appear as a 'tool-tip' when you mouse over the link.

That's how that's done! Thank you. Not sure how often I'll need it, but thank you.

Yay!!!

I didn't know what to expect, but that was lame and kewl!

Wow. Kewl. I am but an egg in the HTML-coding universe, and that is definitely helpful. I just sent it to myself in e-mail so maybe I can put it somewhere where I will remember it. To date, I've learned most of the HTML I know from the LiveJournal FAQ.
