ARP 419 Health Literacy Tips Part 1
Episode 420
Monday, 8 June, 2026
It is time for my summer slow down but the tricksters do not rest. So for a couple of episodes, I want to share with you some of the new fangled ways the underside of the bottom of the barrel will try to get you to read, click or share. This time a look at busty thumbnails and Barney Google's type eyes in social media title cards and thumbnails. The TLDL is that there are all kinds of ways to get attention. Attention sometimes equals clicks and then clicks equal cash or data harvesting. When possible, avoid the Reaper. Resources Mentioned: The Trust It or Trash It website has tutorials on how to evaluate a health or mental health site for being a safe place to get information.
