FireFox Addon: Cooliris

I recommend this. It takes a little getting used to, but it's handy. And the right-click-on-a-highlighted-phrase search feature (including a wikipedia option) is by itself worth having.

Cooliris Previews gives you the power to browse and share Web links and rich media faster. Just mouse over any link, and the Cooliris preview window immediately appears to show you the content. To email it, just click.

• Simply mouse over the Cooliris link icon, and a preview window will instantly appear to show you the underlying content. No more clicking back and both, or leaving your current page.

• To email a link instantly, just right-click on any web page.

Right-click on any phrase to have Cooliris automatically do a subsearch in Google, Wikipedia, or a dictionary.

• Customize how and when you want the preview window to appear. (See our developer notes below)

Cooliris Previews does not contain any adware or spyware whatsoever.
