Snap WordPress Plugin

We implemented a new WordPress plugin (Snap Preview) this week that uses Snap to provide visual previews of  links on mouseover.  Nothing revolutionary going on here, but it is nice plugin candy for people into that sort of thing (me).

    My pick for the new mullet.

    The link text (and the title) combined with the trust I have in the blogger are sufficient to determine whether I follow an external link.

    Snap shows me that the site is blue and 2 column, but doesn’t offer anything else in terms of usability. In fact, I reckon it decreases the usability of a page…

    Snap is literally a nightmare…

    The conventional wisdom appears to have turned on the Snap plugin the last few days. The backlash is in full efffect. I like it and will keep it for a bit longer just to be contrary.

    Good to see that the audience has a voice here at TBG…

    Jason - we actually decided to take it down after reading up on it a bit more and my comment was meant to be tongue in cheek. Thanks for reading.
