This entry is write in spanish and english.

Parece ser que después de Bloquear ContentLink con Firefox y hacer recientemente lo mismo con WebSnapr a la gente de WordPress.com se le ha ocurrido utilizar Snap, un servicio similar a Websnapr.

Si usar Snap para los enlaces es malo, lo peor es usarlo por defecto. Aunque sólo sea en el 10% de los sitios de WordPress.com. Tanto Scailay como Lorelle lo han comentado y no están precisamente contentos.

Si seguimos empeñados en no usar NoScript, la cosa toca por:

  1. Instalar AdBlock Plus.
  2. Click en botón de AdBlock Plus -> Preferencias.
  3. Añadir de filtro: http://spa.snap.com/snap_preview_anywhere.js*.

English version

First I blocked ContentLink ad network and then make the same with WebSnapr. Recently the guys from WordPress.com is added one [ironic]correct[/ironic] feature: Add Snap by default. Snap is one alternative to Websnapr.

If use Snap on the links is bad, use by default is worst although the testing is only on the 10% of wordpress.com sites. So Scailay and Lorelle write two posts about the innovation and can’t stay very pleased.

If you can’t use NoScript Firefox extension you can:

  1. Install AdBlock Plus extension.
  2. Go to AdBlock Plus -> Preferences.
  3. Add the filter http://spa.snap.com/snap_preview_anywhere.js*.

Well, one suck’s feature less.
