Ah, misleading… I thought “MMORPG Entropia Receives Banking License (Briefly)” means they received a banking license briefly and then lost it. Perhaps [Briefly] would better separate the source from the title?
Jani – nicely pointed out, thanks. How would you see the [briefly] – in the beginning or at the end or does it matter?
Other ideas also more than welcome!
I guess [briefly] before the title is the most obvious way to tell that the content comes from something called briefly. You may not want that in the page title though, for SEO reasons.
Jani,
Thanks for the comment. Also would love to hear what our readers would rather see: Normal stories that keep to facts and short analysis OR longer pieces with more analysis + [Briefly] all the breaking news. We’re looking into our editorial direction and would love to get feedback.
If you rather email us, please send your comments to info[at]arcticstartup.com
Thanks again!
