I was looking around some of the other social bookmarking sites and
noticed that Simpy has the ability to store an alternative title.  This
allows the original title to be saved in its original form while still
providing the user the ability to have a custom title of their own.  I
think this is a great idea.  I'd even go one step further by suggesting
a unique twist, which is easiest to describe by illustration.

Here's an example of an accurate, but nondescript, page title.

Title:  Florida man killed
Custom: 
Display:        <a ...>Florida man killed</a>

I'd like a more personally meaningful title.

Title:  Florida man killed
Custom: My uncle's neighbor died in a freak storm!
Display:        <a ...>My uncle's neighbor died in a freak storm!</a>

That's relevant to me, but others viewing my bookmarks may not
appreciate the significance.  Here's a way to combine both.

Title:  Florida man killed
Custom: Tampa $TITLE by lightning next door to my uncle's house
Display:        Tampa <a ...>Florida man killed</a> by lightning next
door to my uncle's house

I think this would be really cool.
