iReader - Preview Site Content Without Clicking

  ADVERTISEMENTS

ireaderlogo.gifiReader is a browser extension for both IE and Firefox. It can preview the site content before you click. iReader is a bit like Snap, which i found extremely annoying. Instead of showing you a tiny screen capture of where a link on a website lead to, iReader preview a list of text when links are moused over. Besides, IReader can be turn on and off by the users.

When ever you mouse over any Internet link iReader reads all of the text on the target link and instantly returns a summary to be previewed by you right in your browser. iReader gives you the essential meaning of the link in a short prioritized list and helps you decide weather or not to click the link.

IReader is really smart in creating pop-up summary of the content behind a link. But in performance wise, it took quite some time for the popup to appear. I think this is promising product, although it’s still a little buggy. Since iReader is in beta, so give it a bit of time for it to improve.

    Have you tried cooliris? It’s somewhat similar to this, but shows a larger preview. I simply love that
