Yeah it is a linkbait. And the article seems to be devoid of any content

icey | karma 29080 | avg karma 7.11 · | 2009-08-14 16:11:57+00:00

This article would be just as interesting without the linkbait title.

mathattack | karma 18067 | avg karma 2.35 · | 2015-02-06 12:03:12

The title is definitely linkbait!

jonpaul | karma 1947 | avg karma 3.87 · | 2011-02-01 14:31:45

Come on. It'd only be linkbait if the meat of the article didn't address the title. I thought his title was very relevant to the content.

ashconnor | karma 926 | avg karma 1.93 · | 2011-07-20 02:43:36+00:00

The article delivers. Why is this linkbait?

reverend | karma -5 | avg karma -0.36 · | 2012-01-10 19:01:14

TIL "linkbait". Indeed very fitting description many submissions lately.

icey | karma 29080 | avg karma 7.11 · | 2009-08-14 11:43:35

You feel that the linkbait title somehow improves the article?

josefresco | karma 13528 | avg karma 2.71 · | 2009-01-20 13:04:34

linkbait article titles ftw

minimaxir | karma 67739 | avg karma 7.48 · | 2014-07-23 19:01:37

This is one of the few cases in which the linkbait title actually works against the article.

rw | karma 2967 | avg karma 3.36 · | 2008-12-26 05:04:36+00:00

... + Linkbait

blt | karma 4916 | avg karma 2.99 · | 2015-02-26 19:41:33+00:00

Linkbait title is linkbait, but content is sound.

rednukleus | karma 934 | avg karma 3.61 · | 2013-07-12 07:42:37+00:00

Its a shame that they put such a ridiculous linkbait title on an otherwise good article.

awa | karma 1882 | avg karma 3.13 · | 2010-09-17 18:44:25

Ironically, the lack of substance in this article make it seems this it like a "linkbait" rather than the original article the author calls linkbait

s_m | karma 122 | avg karma 1.42 · | 2011-07-18 05:10:09+00:00

That's the most linkbait title I've ever read.
