That would seem like a natural addition to this extension since it already has to go and fetch the site.

Pity. After having tried it I will have to agree with the rest: it missed a lot of snapshots for valid websites, rendering it useless for what I thought I could use it for. Pity.

You should rather http://www.web2wave.com also based on coverflow but more usefull. I must also agree with ‘Google (All-Star)’ and Transcontinental this is nice but actually a gadget.

Moreover, I must agree with 'Google (All-Star)', this extension is nice but rather useless, even if it remains a very nice gadget.
