Snap preview - delayed/timeout load
I saw this function weeks ago. It pops you up a thumnail of the link:
I like this function. It is just like what the search engine, Ask.com, did to display the search results. Even the Wordpress.com started to use it. And I enabled this funtion last week.
But today, there is a serious problem fetching the javascript from spa.snap.com. There is apparently a timeout, about 20 seconds. The preview is not functional now. I hope it won’t die as the Gravatar and I still want to keep this function. I think they can solve the problem later. But I need a solution to download my page faster, at least without the 20s delay.
The solution seems simple, instead of putting the javascript in the header, moving the preview code to the near bottom, just before the end of body . This is just as where the Google analytics code is put.
