The reason I am asking is to know if I am wasting my time or worse consigning these pages to 'google hell'.

The use of title on the HTML elements causes them to display when they are focused on. The title has a legitimate function on links and on tables and paragraphies they can summarize it's content. They are valid in XHTML.

I began using them for their mneumonic value but quickly saw that they could readily contain keywords.

I guess the real question is would the use of title on HTML elements be considered by Google as "search spam"?
