WASHINGTON (CBS.MW) -- A self-described fan of Google has produced a
free software program that adds thumbnail images of Web pages to
Google's search results page.
Andreas Pizsa told SearchEngineWatch that he developed "MoreGoogle" to
bring to Google (GOOG

"Amazon-like features such as user-ratings, recommendations and reviews"
to Web searches. MoreGoogle adds links to find archived pages, related
sites and a site's traffic statistics.
"Seeing a preview image is often useful when deciding whether to click
through to a particular page or not," wrote Chris Sherman, associate
editor of SearchEngineWatch, in reporting on the release of MoreGoogle.
Pizsa's program is available for download from a server in Austria,
where he lives. On the Web site (www.moregoogle.com), Pizsa said the
program doesn't include spyware or advertising.

I really like this. Anyone know of any negatives?
Thanks,
Norman
