The end of Snap Shots.

Over the next few hours/days, I’ll be removing the Snap Shots feature I had installed around here for good.

It used to be a cool, nifty and free feature to preview things like an Amazon link or a YouTube video without leaving the page. But now, they have aesthetically fucked it all up with advertising in the previews. I perfectly understand their need to make money, but previews with ads don’t look too awesome on personal websites.

What the Snap.com Snap Shot preview used to look like

I think Snap Shots would still be OK for link directories, but for now, it’s goodbye Snap.com from dullneon.com (and I’m not the only one, it seems).
