Chris,

>David, consider it a tweet. Short and sweet.

Not good enough, even my tweets are less generic than that (see 
http://twitter.com/dkmcf ).

Don't need a full review, just something more than the generic 
""Found this interesting! And
free!".  At least give us the name of the product you're promoting 
and a brief description (<= 1 simple sentence), so we don't have to 
click on the link just to discover that you are promoting something 
totally unrelated to our interests.  Also, we're getting slammed over 
here with users clicking on generic links and installing viruses and 
we try to teach them not to do that, so we don't need NAG setting bad 
examples itself!
