maybe Microsoft love DaveN so much (and who doesn’t) that they have given him an easter egg.

Mouseover works for me, starts playing the video snippet. Nice feature, looks good and works well.

Works fine for me with latest version of IE but won’t work in FF - really cool feature - try “youtube” suffix on your search. Cool for finding music vids etc.

Yep - looks like an IE only feature, why am I not surprised - wonder if the EU could see this as anti-competitive and get even more money out of MS?
Still really cool feature!

It works for me, using Firefox 2.0.0.6 on Linux. Frankly I’m surprised - not only that by the simplicity of the idea, but that Microsoft actually got cross-platform right (unlike Siliverlight, which stretches the meaning of cross platform…).
I also have to admit they are improving the translation tool [http://translator.live.com/]; initially it refused to work with sites which use the html “base” tag - found in many CMS platforms, etc. But, surprise, surprise, these sites are now accepted. Now if they could just perfect machine translation….
