Use the word “sucks” in a headline and it seems you’ll be more likely to get on Memeorandum. Dang. It’s weird. I think that my post on attention that I wrote the other night is far more important for the industry to read and think about than any of the posts I wrote that use the word “sucks” in the headline. But that didn’t make it to Memeorandum cause it didn’t capture the attention of enough bloggers. 
But, it does get to what I told the audience yesterday: write great headlines. Why? We’re getting thrown so much information that we skim headlines. Plus, many of us are doing headline searches. Still others are visiting sites like Delicious. All of which make writing good headlines more important.
Update: now the attention article is on Memeorandum too. Great, I have three articles on Memeorandum. Will someone link to someone else, please? Of course, this just shows that when I write something new instead of linking to the same stuff everyone else is that it gets more attention.
