One of the things I am always being asked by clients is how to reduce the number of clicks users have to do to get to the information they want.
If you are using views then one way to do this is to go to
admin/build/views/edit/[viewname] > Fields > add field : Node:Body - exclude from display. Then order the fields so this is at the top. In Fields > Node: Title > tick [Output this field as a link] > Link path: [view_node] > Alt text: [body] > Update > Save.
