SneakPeek Extension

SneakPeek is a better way to browse the internet.

Do you know how you're searching for something on the web and end up visiting like 1000 pages just to go back in a few seconds because it's clearly not what you're looking for? Yeah, painful, we know...

SneakPeek provides a simple way to Peek and Preview links without opening the page. You can:
• Trigger a Peek (by link hover + trigger key) to see the promo image, description, and the start of the page text.
• Trigger a Preview (by link click + trigger key) to display the full page without navigating away from the current page.

SneakPeek also packs some power-user features and settings. Just to name a few:
• It's ready for video pages like YouTube or Vimeo, displaying the little preview of the video.
• It's ready for PDF files.
• It automatically detects and displays the best answer from the StackOverflow questions.
• It let's you adjust the trigger-key to fit your specific flow.
• It let's you adjust the preloading behaviour to fit your needs and internet connection.
• It has a theme editing.

Give it a go. You might love it!
