Description

When writing a title for people to read, I like to use humor, puns, oblique references, and so on.

When searching for an article, however, what you want isn't the titles, but a list of short summaries of the content.

For instance, an article titled "Quel barbe" would be better summarized for search results as "Shaving with a traditional double-edge safety razor".

So: I'd like the option of providing a 1-line summary of the article to be used in search results. If left blank, the display title would be used.

See also http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/04/09/035205 which describes a similar problem with Google and online newspapers.

I'm reasonably confident that if you look at your own titles, you'll realize that in general they're a pretty poor 1-line summary of the content.
