Created with phantomjs along with nginx, a tornado server, and some JavaScript. I'd love to hear what you think!
I use a Chrome extension that is somewhat similar, but only for images : http://hoverzoom.net/

It's one of these little things that you realize how useful they are when they're not here ;)

Maybe you should try to implement it as a browser extension instead of a website extension? I think it would be more useful (because it is not expected behavior for a visitor of your website).

Not a bad idea. However, by letting sites opt in, economies of scale really kick in... we deliver a few thumbnails many times (on sites where it's especially useful, since they've opted in) instead of creating a bunch randomly scattered about the web.
