Anyway if you really have to use it, I will ask you to not forget about accessibility. Please use alternative text like this : title="Description (Launches a new window)"
Misconception really, as not many screen reader users have title readout enabled (it is disabled by default) which is why you should give crucial information like this in the link text and not in a title attribute [1]. My chapter "Accessible JavaScript" in "Web Accessibility: Web Standards and Regulatory Compliance" (http://www.friendsofed.com/book.html?isbn=1590596382) dealt with that and you can download the code for it at http://www.friendsofed.com/download.html?isbn=1590596382 That one uses the rel attribute and changes the text content only when JS is available.
