I haven't found a way to avoid writing titles here in Blogger. And I really hate writing titles. Yes, yes, obviously: "What's the big deal? Just call it something, fool!" But there's something about having to sum up a post in a title that turns it into something other than I want it to be. Sometimes I just want to write a long Twitter - not "A Post About Something", but just me saying whatever-not-much.
But Blogger uses a title as the page address, so if you don't provide a title yourself, it snags the first words from your post and uses them instead - which looks stupid in the archives. And my former method of using date and number (eg. 15Jul08-1) now looks stupid in Swurl.
So that's it, you see? Whatever I do it's going to look stupid.
It's nice to have that going for me, yes.
