Doesn't look like it is maintained anymore. It was good that is previewed the content without iframes.
I've installed a similar script Linkz.ai (not extension) for my website, it shows previews to all the visitors as they don't need to install the extension.
It sometimes doesn't work for certain websites.
umm... it is not working for me. i would change my rating if i were to arrive here and there was a obvious solution i missed. thank u. uninstalling.
