Long time Malone Zone readers will remember a comment posted way back by Urban Eye regular 'Tini Mack. My boy 'Tini - known for his custom martinis and frequent critical feedback - mentioned all the trouble he had to go through when following post links. Originally links would open in the same browser window forcing readers to follow the link, read the material, then click back to the post to continue. Oh the horror! That led to to hand editing the post HTML to ensure links opened in a new tab or window, but, those days may be done...
Now, thanks to a cool web service called Snap Shots, you don't even have to leave the page to follow most post links. When you move your pointer over a link, a summary box will pop up with the link content. There's a magnify icon on the top right that you can use to blow up the box so you can see things better if you need to *and* you still have the option of clicking in the box to get a full sized page in another tab or window. Very cool and you have 'Tini Mack to thank if you like it or to complain to if you don't. I'll post his email address shortly...So now note that some links have a little balloon behind them like this sample link to Sean Kingston's new video 'Take You There'. Try it, you'll like it. Yes, y'all - it's all good...
Peace@Least,
Tyrone
