I set this as my default search engine a couple weeks ago, and have rarely missed Google.

Did you check a search engine before you asked a human to be your search engine? You’d be surprised how often people ask people for help where much better answers are available in writing.

a good rule of thumb for designing and writing page titles:

Pick a name and a pattern that makes sense as the name of a bookmark for that page. Most bookmarking tools — the ones built into web browsers, and bookmarklets for third-party apps — use the page title as the default bookmark name. Tools that help people tweet links to articles use the page title as the default description. So make titles useful. Write them for humans, not search engine spiders.
