Personally, I find it rather annoying. For some sites I've linked to in the past, the title of the page has been way longer than the URL, so the post doesn't look or read properly. Plus, I'd rather know the web address then the title of the page when I'm clicking on it. I dunno, it's just a preference thing, but I wish it were off by default (or settable in your profile to be off by default).
