For those that have never used it, Cooliris creates a Javascript pop-up preview whenever you mouse over a link. The pop-up lets you see whatever the link leads to without leaving the page you're on. Cooliris started out limiting its previews to Google, Ebay and other large sites, but now it works just about anywhere. Simple drag your mouse over a link or thumbnail and Cooliris will automatically show a preview. I should note that this is not a thumbnail or simple image

it's

the actual webpage and you can browse it like you would any other. In the case of video links you can watch the video within the preview window, which makes browsing through YouTube considerably less time consuming. I've been using Cooliris for a few months now and I can honestly say there's a good chance it will change the way you browse the web. For instance, typically, when I searched for something on Google, I would open a few results in tabs and then work my way through them. After a few hours of this I used to have twenty or thirty tabs open and no real idea which were useful and which weren't. Using Cooliris has streamlined my searching considerably since now I can quickly see and browse a page without leaving the page I'm on. If I decide the page is useful I go ahead and open it in a tab, if not I just move the mouse off the link and the Cooliris window disappears. Cooliris is available for Internet Explorer, Firefox, Flock and Safari, but the exact features vary somewhat between platforms.
