Got Firefox? "Tabscope" Nice Add-On Tab Previewer

Maybe old news for most, but I found this recently and it's pretty nice -- one can preview in two "mini" browser sizes. I find it a time saver and nice for image and visual content sites.

Here's the description from the developer

i tried this ~ a year ago. i found it annoying as when you leave your mouse pointer alone over ANYTHING that is a link a window pops up. So I had lots of unwanted popups.

Still a cool thing though.

This isn't that one.

I think I know the one you are talking about -- can't remember the name offhand. What that one does is what you say, i.e. you hover over a hit in Google, and pop. I got rid of that one, drove me nuts too.

This one is only activated when one hovers over over a the actual tab above the browser window in Firefox as far as my experience.

No good on links in a page (pun unintended, but that's good :).

Neat. I was hoping for something like this. It's the one feature in IE7 that I like. Thanks for the link.
