I’m finding more and more sites with Snap Preview on them. Its neat and clever, but damn annoying!

Sweet link, Cheers Eng!

I discovered that you can do a similar thing by clicking “options” in the top right of the preview. It gives the option to disable them all with just a reload of the page. Does it for all sites too.

Click that link folks!

Yeah, everyone hates that Snap Preview after around 10 minutes.

The best part is that if your linking to relatively fresh blog posts then most of the time they don’t even have a preview yet.

You can use this link to set a cookie to turn it off for all blogs you visit even if the administrator doesn’t see the light:
