      Titles are a problem; they’re all that almost everybody sees — click-through rates to articles are around 2.5% of the headline view rates. I try to increase that by using gift links and archived copies of articles; but that has a fairly limited impact on peoples’ willingness to click in the first place.

      Actually understanding means doing more than reading the headline, and that makes it very hard to get information across.
