Again, nice idea but totally wrong approach. ALT is an image replacement 
when there is no images available, title describes the image.
That browsers show alt as a tool tip is actually an annoying feature, as 
it makes people use stupid alt text because they look good.

On another note, with titles displaying: Ever realised that Mozilla cuts 
off title tooltips after a certain amount of characters? It adds
.... to them. Maybe something to be aware off when going overboard with 
titles.

Also check kryogenix's nicetitle for something like this one working 
with links:

Chris
