Snapshots: Go or No?

This past weekend I added a new feature to my blog. It's called Snapshots and I actually came across is by mistake. I was fiddling with my profile on Technorati and clicked on the picture of my blog (which is the old picture). I don't understand why Technorati can't update the picture of my blog but I guess I'm stuck unless one of my technologically savvy readers gives me some hints. In any case, I clicked on the Snapshots link and went through the sign up thing and poof! I had all these teeny TVs (that's what I'm calling them anyway) at every link on my blog. When you roll over the link a snap shot of the website appears giving the reader a glimpse of what is to come should you click.


I really don't know if I like this feature or not. I think it's neat in some places but I have the feeling that it's just a trend that will eventually become annoying and out of style and/or ridiculous. Kind of like leg warmers with tennis shoes and jeans in the 80's. I also could be completely wrong and maybe people will find it quite handy.


That's why I'm leaving it up to you, peeps. Yes, you will be able to decide the fate of the Snapshots feature on my blog. Please note the poll in the top left of the blog. I encourage you to vote. The poll will be posted for one week and depending on the results, the Snapshots will either remain or be banished. Voting is easy and I don't even require registration. So check out the site, see how you like the feature and then vote away. This is your chance to influence my blog! Thank you for your support.

My name is Mandybomb and I approve this post.
