Interclue 1.5.8.1


Firefox add-on that displays content preview
Interclue tooltip windows display content previews, useful extra information and relevant next actions for almost any link on the web. A truly user-centric design, "Clueview" tooltips show you only the most relevant content from linked pages, and can provide embedded viewing for images, mp3s and YouTube videos.

Interclue is the ultimate link augmentation multitool. Our goal is to provide you with excellent previews, useful extra information and relevant next actions for almost any given link on any given page.

However, Interclue tries just as hard to stay out of your way when it's not needed. For instance, Interclue usually won't show clues on internal site navigation (eg tagclouds, drop down menus, etc), because such links tend to be closely packed and tooltips will often just get in the way without really adding much value.

Here are some sites that Interclue works really well on: Most search engines, and local site searches. Google Reader. Bloglines. gMail. Del.icio.us, Digg, other social bookmarking sites.

Bugzilla and Trac ticketing systems. Most news sites. Almost any given blog. If you're a knowledge worker, don't forget to try it on your intranet (Interclue does all of its page summarization work inside the browser, so there is no security risk involved in using it on your intranet - although you may need to turn it on from the status bar, Interclue is turned off by default on all https sites)

Interclue provides page summary text in any language, and we have many positive reviews from non-english blogs and newspapers, but we haven't yet translated the options and tutorials. We will be working on this soon.

Interclue is fast and easy to use an it launches a 2 minute tutorial on install, after that it starts saving you time.
