I face a trivial inconvenience. If I want to send someone a message through LW, I am held up by trying to think of a Subject line.
What is a good convention or social norm that would enable people to not have to think about what to put there and how that affects the message?
This isn't quite an answer to your question, but my approach is to write the message first. Usually by then the subject is obvious.
But for where it isn't, I generally go with something like "A question" or "A thought" or "Some possibilities" or something equally neutral like that.
