Preview bubbles are good things; they save time in high-traffic Inboxes. Gmail offers one-line snippets next to
every message header, but they are often insufficient. Mihai Parparita, who works at Google but developed this project
independently, has created right-click-activated
message preview bubbles for Gmail. You
need Greasemonkey v0.5 on your machine.
It's worth noting that the new Google Desktop, released
today, provides an email alert widget in the Sidebar that previews entire emails in a slide-out panel that closely
resembles a bubble. It's smooth and effective.

(Page 1)2. Why hasn't this been added to the greasemonkey user script archives yet? Please do so! And thanks for the script.
Greasemonkey.. is not easy to describe.. it basically allows you or others to write scripts that can modify the elements of webpages within firefox. For instance.. it can simply remove annoying flash banners from sites or it can add mouse wheel zooming to things like google maps.
