BetterSearch is an excellent example of the sort of cool extensions that people are writing for Firefox. BetterSearch enhances Google and other search engines by including thumbnails of the pages returned as search results. Its got pretty sophisticated options, too — I’ve got it set up to show small thumbnails and then big thumbnails on a mouseover. At least with Google, its building the thumbnails based on the Google cache of the page.
Very cool.
