 * Hi Martin,
 * You probably figured this out by now, but in case you didn’t, all you need to
   do is add the following rule to your style.css:
 *     ```
       #sb-title {
       	display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * That should do the trick.

 * Omission, mauricenaef, et al,
 * I agree. The lack of the ability to easily detect the current parent category
   for the single post you’re viewing is troubling. I can think of many reasons 
   you’d want to do this – Breadcrumb navigation, Showing a parent category as a
   primary title to what you’re viewing, etc.
 * Offhand, and I’m not an experienced php programmer, I think that if the next_post_link
   keeps you in the current category you’re viewing, then it’s detecting which category
   you’re in, so the answer maybe could be found by determining how that function
   detects that.
 * For the record, I think there should be a function to detect the current category
   for a single post. Something akin to a get_the_category, but more powerful than
   the $category[0]-> method.
