PicLens plugin for Firefox: view images in coverflow

The PicLens plugin for Firefox lets you view groups of images in a “Photo Wall.”

Very handy for browsing Google Images or Flickr: it’s like looking at JPEGs in Cover Flow.

In fact, Steve is probably going to be all over this one for Safari:

“Ever get tired of having to click to view an image? Well, with the Image Wall, you don’t have to. When you’re on a web page and you see the little PLAY icon appear over an image, you can view all of those images as a Photo Wall. Just click the PLAY button in the top right corner of Safari, and, you can browse JPEGs just like you can album art in iTunes.”

Right now PicLens only works with half a dozen sites, but it’s so cool that we predict the compatibility will soon be through the roof.

Thanks to getTRIO for introducing us to PicLens.
