# Top Ten Blog Post Titles I Want To Use

It’s Friday afternoon where I live, so time for a less serious post. There’s an art to creating good weblog post titles and most of the time I craft my post titles *after* I’ve written the post. However some post titles are just too good NOT to use, because they’re witty or amusingly cliched or just downright memorable! Here’s a list of blog post titles I have on hold, each of which I hope to deploy someday. Feel free to add yours in the comments.

Instructions: Where there’s a blank (—–), fill it in with your favourite buzzword. e.g. a popular buzzword currently is “Podcast” – try inserting that into the suggestions below (it may need to be pluralised in some cases).

1\. **Dude, Where’s My —–?**

2\. **Is That A —– In Your Pocket, Or Are You Just Pleased To See Me**

3\. **Mo’ Better —–**

4\. **—– Considered Harmful**

5\. **The Great —– Experiment**

6\. **—– Is The New Black**

7\. **—– As A Platform**

8\. **How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The —–**

9\. **—–, It’s All Greek To Me** \*\*

10\. **Read/Write Web Acquired By Google For $100 Million**

\*\* nb: the second-to-last one was inspired by my favourite newspaper headline of all time. It was by a British tabloid, during the time of the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Australian officials had [mistakenly issued](https://web.archive.org/web/20050213045236/http://deseretnews.com/sydney/view/1,3466,195009786,00.html) a coin that depicted a coliseum, symbolic of ancient Rome, instead of a Greek amphitheater. The headline read: **Rome or Athens, it’s all Greek to the Aussies!**
