Google add another trick

[techtimmy]

Just had this pointed out to me, not sure if it has been mentioned here before.

Only works in Chrome at the moment, not IE, FF.

If you roll over something in the SERPS list you now get a large thumbnail (about 300x500) of the website.

May effect how users browse if they can tell from the thumbnail that the website is crap!

am seeing it too, what annoys me is that they don't always have a complete snapshot of the site (often missing pics on the site) and also sometimes no snapshot at all.

Does work in FF/IE, but you have to click the magnifying glass to turn it on...

Yeah the pics are missing video and flash as well. Makes a site look less pro with big glaring gaps
