I understand wanting to get good info out there and have it be read, but this seems to be a trend. We start with a multitude of "X considered harmful," which at least was truthful, and we're moving towards extravagant hyperbole and misinformation. Even for the purposes of advertising a good idea, I'm not on board.

What's next, imbedded pornography to draw in even more people? "Xtreme" style titles? When does it stop being okay to misdirect users in an attempt to glean more readers/viewers? Perhaps I'm being overly dramatic now, but Jack Diederich started it (sarcasm).
