Snap. It. Up.

So I've just added Snap previews to all my links.

Snip Snap!: What's That?

links §amazon §alibris §booksense §google §powells

That is, if you hover over a link on my site, you should get a little preview window of the site I'm pointing you to before you actually visit this site. (This is especially useful if there's no real indication of what site I'm sending you to in the link, as in all the links in the previous few lines... hover to see what I mean... or, you know, buy a book.) If there is no preview in the database, Snap has to generate one first, so sometimes it takes a little longer than others. If you move away from the link, then go back, the preview is very often ready when you are. Which I think is cool, and quite handy, but others might think is annoying, and intrusive, and whatever else... that is... you might hate it. If you hate it, let me know. Because no matter how cool I think a thing is, I'd rather not send people away thinking that I'm just some utter geek who adds cool things to his weblog every damn day because he's such an utter damn geek that he can't actually tell what's actually cool and what's actually just geeky. Because, you know, that might actually be who I am. Thanks.
