Why is the title of the post renamed? Should the titles be boring and dry instead of being informative one line summary of the article that people may find interesting enough to read it?
Look what happened to the previous submission of the same article here on HN: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4224966. Such a good article went unnoticed because the title was plain unattractive.
Can we have a little bit of 'submitters freedom' here?
P.S: Original title was: "Internet by Brilliant minds, Web by Amateurs, Browser a lament"
I do agree on 'cheap' sensational titles, but I don't think mine was. I think it was a better title more in-line to what Alan Kay emphasized in the article, giving it a bit of context to interest someone to read a great interview, instead of just a generic 'Click Here' like the previous submitter's, leading people to think it was not worth 'clicking through'.
Fair comment - on further reflection I agree, the title was reasonable as it highlighted the emphasis placed by Alan Kay. It wasn't the title that was sensational, it what Alan Kay said in the interview. Apologies for suggesting otherwise!
