The Art of the Teaser

Taxonomy upgrade extras:
Like most other art, I struggle even to do a good stick figure.
The trigger for this post is the knowledge that I am horrible at writing teasers. In general I feel that most of the ones I have written are no better than insipid hand waving, while trying to be mysterious. I think my big problem is that I am unwilling to put anything of the story into the teaser, but that may be wrong as well.
Therefore, I would like to pose some questions about teasers:
- Do you like them?
- How long should they be?
- What information would you like them to contain?
