      	&lt;p&gt;Google sells ads against user intent, and Google makes bank on that. Newspaper-dot-coms sell ads against user... presence? -- and they're still making not-that-much on that. &lt;/p&gt;

      	&lt;p&gt; If you watch a movie that ends in a number, you will probably think less of it than if it had a different title. Numbers usually indicate sequels, and most sequels are bad.&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>People using pseudonyms post the highest-quality comments, Disqus says</title>
      <link>http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/mediawire/159078/people-using-pseudonyms-post-the-most-highest-quality-comments-disqus-says</link>
      <description>
      	&lt;p&gt;[Disqus] gives each user the option of commenting with a Disqus account, a social media identity or anonymously. It says 61 percent of commenters use pseudonyms, 35 percent choose to be anonymous and 4 percent use their “real identity” verified by Facebook. It also says those with pseudonyms post the best comments, while anonymous comments are lower quality. One theory: People don’t mind being accountable online, but they don’t want it to blow back on their work or personal lives by using a real identity. A pseudonym protects them while providing a measure of accountability.&lt;/p&gt;
