SNAP out of it!

Words by Daniel Aleksandersen on 2007-03-07

While browsing the Web, especially forums and blogs, most users are bounded to have come accross SNAP links. Snap links are these annoying little pop-up tooltips with screenshots of the Website linked to.

This is annoying. This is not useful for the end user. This is a bad feature to integrate on any Website.

Sure, you can disable it temporarily via SNAP's option page. But the cookie storing the option expires after a few days. By then you will start to see those annoying little things agin until the user finally snaps, and thorws her computer out the window to get some peace of mind…
