PicLens Review

If you are looking for something that enhances your web surfing experience, is free and is a great plug in, then PicLens is something you seriously need to check out. This cross platform and cross browser plug in does a great job as a pic viewer. What it does is, takes the pics from a website, enlarges them and then allows you to surf them in an interface that is really classy.

When you install it, there is a button placed on the toolbar. It works only on PicLens enabled websites. You need to click the PicLens button and then sit back and enjoy as the images on the site zoom past you. After they stop zooming past, you can surf the site using the surf bar that is on the top of the monitor. Clicking on a still image enlarges it while clicking on a video enlarges and then plays it.

The only issue with this great freeware is that it is not supported on every site. Facebook, Myspace, YouTube, Picasa, Flickr and some others are supported. PicLens functionality can be created through a WordPress plugin for Bloggers. This plugin works finest with Mozilla Firefox. It is worth every second of download time. Recommended.
