I'm the same way. If I read in an RSS feed part of an article & it tells me to continue reading, click, I move on. Unlike Styx, I don't have to much time on my hands. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rose Combs" <rosecom...@gmail.com>

Personally, if there is absolutely no description I just delete the message, my time is valuable and unless I know what I am going for I don't have time to just pop in and see what the article is about. A brief synopsis would be
most helpful so I'd know if it is something I would think spending the
length of the cast worth my time.  I for example would not want to her an
hour long podcast on At Bat as I am not a sports fan, only thing I want to
know is if the diamondbacks won and Siri will tell me that.

Donald,

the idea is to drive listers to the website. If the person would have told
you outright what the subject matter was then you would probably delete the
message. By giving you such little information and a link, the goal is for
you to be curious enough to click. At this point you are now on their
website and can read about their many other offerings. I don't like when
people do this as it makes me feel like I'm being manipulated, but this is
how some do things.

Mike, Rather than post a generic message suggesting that interested
persons listen to the show, may I suggest that you place some sort of
capsule synopsis outlining the contents and the basics of the program.
