I discovered a great tool. Well, maybe it's not really right to say that I discovered it, because plenty of blogs and website already use this tool named "Snap Preview Anywhere": Since its introduction in November 2006, it has been adopted rapidly on more than 700,000 websites and continues to grow exponentially every day.
Here a short description: Snap Preview Anwhere is a free tool that lets any site owner add a previewing technology to their sites. When installed, every link on the site will show a preview of the linked site when a viewer hovers over the link. You can also turn the function off if it is starting to annoy you. This tool allows users to quickly decide if a site is really worth visiting before actually clicking on the link. To see how it works and to find out more about the company behind this tool, check out the icon and the link:

I installed it yesterday on my blog and I think it is really cool :) Well, I guess I'm not the only one: Snap.com was chosen as one of TIME's magazine's 50 Coolest Websites of 2006 and Wordpress installed the previewing tool as a standard function on all wordpress-blogs. How long will it take until blogger follows?

Yeah, Snap is pretty good, so long as you use it judiciously.
Using it right, you add value. Use it too much, people won't thank you!
