View previews of Google search results with GooglePreview

Screenshot When we run a search through a major search engine such as Google, we want as much information as possible as we don't really have the time to visit every site to determine if it meets our requirements. To make a decision on the sites we think are worth visiting, we read the description, usually provided by the person who designed the site. You could easily end up on a rogue site or simply a site that isn't as described by the developer.

GooglePreview 2.1.4 is a lightweight extension for Firefox that enables you to see previews of the websites that are recommended to you, via Google, when you enter a search string. By seeing a visual representation of the destination site, you make a better decision on whether it is worth visiting.
