I’m messing around with the updated Snap Shots code. It enhances the links you see on this page with visual previews of the other sites{.snap_shots}, interactive excerpts of things like:
Wikipedia articles{.snap_shots} IMDb titles{.snap_shots} Amazon products like the book I am currently reading{.snap_shots} inline videos RSS feeds{.Snap_Shot_RSS} from a site MP3s like this La Primavera track{.snap_shots} photos{.snap_shots} stock charts{.snap_shots} …you get the idea…
They say the “Snap Shots” can bring you the information you need, without having to leave a site, while other times it lets you “look ahead,” before deciding if you want to follow a link or not.
