User preferences

First off, hi! I'm so please people are posting to the comm!

Now, I was just updating my profile, as per [personal profile] sophinisba's suggestion, and I stumbled into the user preferences page. It's got all the normal preferences you'd expect to see (comment notifications, display settings, time zone etc), but right down the bottom I found a feature that I did not know existed.

Format the titles on your works and series

This is awesome! I have a system when I bookmark on delicious.com; a system developed over years of trial and error and evolution through growing fandomly. The default page title is TITLE - AUTHOR - FANDOM, but I prefer AUTHOR - TITLE - FANDOM. So now I can impose that on my works. Not just that, this setting allows you to impose the title format on all works on the Archive. This means for me that bookmarking to delicious just became 100% easier because I no longer have to rewrite the whole page title to fit my system!

See, it's the little things that make AO3 awesome :D
