John,
I hate to disagree, however the "5 ways to......" is so overdone, and in BAD ways, that I make it a point to avoid opening any of those lists. Have you actually scanned a group post discussion list on Linked In lately? Every other post is one of these numbered lists, and most are repeats of each other. I have cut way back on both the frequency of digest emails and how often I actually scan them because of so much of exactly this kind of junk. Why would a serious marketer, especially to engineers, use this tactic? Anything that is actually valuable info is likely to be ignored. These numbered lists definitely make MY list of top 5 annoyances on social media posting sites.
