Snap Shots builds upon the rapid success of Snap Preview Anywhere (now renamed PreviewShot) which, in the 5 months since its debut, has been implemented on more than 1 million web sites and blogs, generating more than 9 million previews a day or roughly 100 images per second.

The new products from Snap are NewsShot, PreviewShot™, WikiShot™, MovieShot™, StockShot™, VideoShot™, PhotoShot™, ProductShot™, AudioShot™.
