Link Titles

SugarPez · 01-30-2009, 08:32 AM

I'll be the first to say I'm not a fan of web links automatically being turned into titles in a post.
I like to know where I'm going before I click on a link. I know how to view the address - but it just takes that much longer now.
Is this because a referral code is being added to links (where applicable)?

I second that, yes, it's annoying.

Hmmm...I just noticed that it does that. How you view the address before you click the link (or is there even a way to do that?)

Scroll your mouse over the link, and the address will show up on the bottom of your web browser.

When you post a link to another site, instead of showing you the web address it gives you a title. I posted a link to some belly balm and instead of showing the web address I posted it showed 'Wiseways Herbal Belly Balm 8 oz.' and you click on that title and it takes you to the webpage.
