Snap Gone

After some thought, as well as seeing how the popups sometimes prevented me from clicking on a link on someone else's site, along with sometimes popping up when you least expected them, I decided to turn off the Snap popups.

It was a neat idea, but it interferes with the use of the blog, so I do not expect it to return. If you have not seen them, it is a preview of the target of a link and it pops up when you move the mouse pointer over a link. Really cool at first, but quickly becomes annoying.

I hope the new Snap's search is not similarly annoyance-filled. I used to use them back when they were part of C|Net.
