HTML Prefetch in FireFox/Mozilla (and Google)

[EvilAndrew]

While examining some HTML I ran across this tag <LINK rel=’prefetch’ ...>  I thought the feature was interesting and have decided to share it.

It seems that Google uses it for some searches.  I am sure they use it sparingly because it probably makes their site seem a little slower, but it is still cool technology.

Yeah, that would get turned off as fast as I could click the mouse!!!

Wouldn't want my cache filling up with naughty images unless directed by me to do so!!
